I wouldn't go so far as efforts, so much as legally required publication of 3rd party code they use, or open wrappers to their proprietary libraries

I've moved over to ListenBrainz, it's quite nice and I like that the data is open and not trying to be monitized

Ive noticed every vibecoded website looks the same, or similar to this one.

Why is it? Does this style have a name?

This is interesting to see and shows the beauty of open source: if you want GTK2 to be alive, you can put in the effort to revive it.

This being Devuan it is driven by those pesky Debian devs removing GTK2

Hard to tell if this is so hard to read because it is LLM generated, or because its is hollow "thought leadership" with no insight.

Unsure if there is no astroturfing rule for HN, but this is pretty blatant.

Oracle were 40B in profit in 2024.

I saw a comment in a "I moved from Windows to Linux" thread implying Windows has more configuration potential than Linux. I wonder what that commenter would make of Gentoo.

I wish I had more time I could dedicate to maintaining my system, I'm marooned on Arch due to lack of time, such a shame.

Remember this not a billion dollar company we are talking about here, this is volunteer OSS project. If no one wants to maintain the X11 support then that's up to them.
