    I don’t know why, but when I see someone overusing ellipses, they immediately seem like an at least 50 year old man who most likely doesn’t have a great relationship with their kids to me. This has turned out to be true almost every time.









  • X11 doesn’t support a number of modern features well (e.g. fractional scaling) and has a fundamentally insecure operational model that makes it hard to prevent keylogging/screengrabbing, and the developers found it so hard to evolve & work with over time that they decided to start over with a more modular and conservative approach.

    While it was a painful transition, I believe it’s worth it. But I don’t think that the accessibility story has developed enough to make the deprecation of X11 a good idea…
