  • It’s a thing for people to share git repositories and see the diffs and send changes. Common alternatives are gitlab and github. Codeberg is a fork community maintained after the original owners started to be weird and doing stuff that people didn’t like. It’s written in Go language. Small and fast for people to deploy themselves and maintain, in complete opposite from the common alternative people used gitlab which is a huge pain to self host and needs enormous resources.






  • It really is pretty great nowadays. I always had both my laptops with fractional scaling and currently it all seems to work very well, no more weird renderings anywhere. And a greater thing, I had a external screen I left unused for multiple years because it needed to be used with a different fractional scaling than the laptop it was connected and now it just works and I can finally use it. It’s nice. I don’t have hdr needs but color management seems to be properly in place now and the bugs I had previously with it are also gone - like it did something weird on some video recording app and some weird stuff with that thing that changes the color of the screen when it’s night - it all just works now.





  • With the amount of people burning out and the open hostility, no matter how much support seems to be said in the practical sense it doesn’t materialize. The interests are clearly not aligned and keep grinding like this won’t do any good to anyone mentally for sure.

    I can only imagine it happening with a downstream out of the tree patchset where the rust people will just do what they need to do and eventually a bunch of drivers will start to be done in that branch that will never be ported to the mainline. It could take a decade more for that work to maybe go back into the kernel. Like other similar efforts happened before.
