yet another, xorg yet again, but...

Its written in assembly and its so small!

I don't know his plans, but I think he plans to make it as functional as xorg or xlibre, but at a fraction of the size/bloat.

Too early to know about how secure or fast or stable it will be though.

This X server will trigger the Rust crowd, assembler means no safety nets of any kind, not just no memory safety! big_smile

LOL! But probably not, check his other work, it's almost all in rust.

Re: yet another, xorg yet again, but...

@tux_99 so does that mean its better or worse than being built in C programming language? or is it the same

PS, because the rust crowd wants to force their views on everyone to intimidate everyone into using rust, I hope they get triggered.

They are no better than systemd developers and other bloated linux framework developers and especially gnome developers... they are as bad as them even.
