I think you have read superficially and not understood Liam at all. In the comments of another El Reg article about xlibre he says: Liam Proven Re: X11 over network connection > For the first 60 years of my life I'd never once needed or used an > ambulance.

Anyway, I can't tell for sure if you are questioning my position or endorsing it. I strongly agree with you: I do not personally want or use this, but I know that it is absolutely critical to lots of people and as such I want to see it remain. Wayland offers me nothing I want except for one (1) feature: different (and non-integer) scaling factors on different monitors. That is the _only_ thing it does that I want, and if the price of admission is using GNOME or KDE Plasma then I don't want in thanks. I will stay outside. And on X he recommends this article: https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/xlibre.html
