Privacy meme

was checking my old favourite posts and found this.
You're viewing a single thread.
This is fairly dated.
Don't use Telegram or Jami. Also Xorg is dead.
Wait, why not Jami?
According to the threads I found privacy guides:
-
It mostly just doesn't work well.
-
It hasn't been independently audited

No independent audit is a bad sign. It also is unstable with a giant code base.
Also Luke Smith hasn't uploaded in years now
i'm still mad at they killing xorg like it wasn't bad and worked well, everybody could use it
It never worked well for me. It is ok but Wayland is a massive improvement.
xorg almost always worked for me. it had some quirks, but startx almost always solves it. And Xorg is supported by much more gui systems and applications, screen recording is also easy with it
I can't say I've had the same experience. It was always buggy especially with multiple displays and touch screens. What pushed me to Wayland was the much better battery life.
ok i know that wayland is better for those but it is still not a valid reason to abolish xorg
We aren't abolishing Xorg. I will be here for a very long time.
i really hope so, because if they did, 65% of desktops/wms wpuld become inaccessible, that would really erode my trust with linux
Why would they become inaccessible? Also why would that erode trust?
You can do whatever you want.
many desktops and wms were only designed for Xorg, as wayland wasn't anywhere in that time
