That's is. I finally figured out. All these years I had been using the wrong OS on the Pi4 too.

showed me the true way on ARM!

        Heh, I'm going overtime with the , but is SO FUN to use on the Pi1!

        I'm now running JWM, the dillo browser, Pidgin and PCManFM in addition to my busy multiple pane tmux session, and yet the RAM does not go over 260MB! It's amazing, this is like hooking up a motorcycle to pull a wagon of load, adding more and more weight and that motorcycle never slows down despite the load!

        Props and props to the devs, this is definitely my new favorite OS for the raspberry pi!

          I was predicting that something like Wayback would come along and basically be the future for all legacy X11 WMs.

          I'm not saying that Wayland is the best possible solution or even a particularly great one, but X11 has just so much complexity and technical debt.
          My thinking was that Wayland would just eventually become a kind of HAL to keep legacy X11 applications and WMs alive.

          The fact that smaller #FOSS OS projects like #NetBSD have to struggle to find a way to shoehorn it into their OS because it was written exclusively for Linux is not okay. And the attitude of Linux YouTubers of, "Why the heck haven't they got it working yet already?" is seriously not okay.

            FINALLY! I'm happy to announce the R1 Open Source Project, a new project where release news, articles and documentation about Linux, BSD and FOSS software will be published

            The new Mastodon account of the project can be followed here: @r1os
            AND the account is also hosted on the BSD Cafe. Cheers to @stefano at this point.

            All future FOSS release announcements will be published on the project account.

            So grab a cup of coffee and stay tuned for a new website I'm currently preparing and will hopefully announce in a few days.
