thats what i said.

except recommending unmantained software is bound to cause issues for a layman user, regardless of what it is.

Do you have evidence it is unmaintained?

Last commit years ago?

it needs bits and bobs to keep working as is. last commit is an indicator but not a great one by itself.

it aint getting new support, and security patches are taking their sweet damn time. compare that with projects that support wayland. also take a look at what a lot of xorg devs have been working on.

my point this whole time is that a distro stuck on it will start to reflect that.

i feel like this isnt going anywhere so have a nice day.
