So, I see and understand these arguments in theory -- but, and I don't think I'm alone, none of them are actually pressing?
I'm running Openbox/Xubuntu on a 4K monitor, doing some awesome equivalent-of-4-monitors work, then playing all the steam games I want with the Proton and the decent AMD GPU, all under X. "Font size is a little weird sometimes" is my only gripe?
Put differently, I understand "hacking around the issue" criticism in theory -- but if you applied that sort of purity to, say, web programming -- step one would be, okay, first get rid of Javascript, an idea that I really do like in theory, but I know it's not happening.
