Plot twist: The right side is actually just Linux furries having Vim vs Emacs and X11 vs Wayland debate/fight.

And systemd vs other init systems, FOSS vs open source, GNU or not, Pipewire and PulseAudio, Windows...

Pipewire and PulseAudio

What is pipewire? Shouldn't this be alsa vs pulseaudio?

Sir, it's 2024, not 2006.

Pipewire is a more modern replacement for pulseaudio.

I have never heard of alsa. Pipewire is supposed to be the better pulseaudio is it not?

[-] vaionko@sopuli.xyz 4 points 5 months ago

Alsa is the very base of the Linux audio system. Pipewire and pulseaudio run on top of it. Back before pulseaudio it was directly used by software

People are fighting over Wayland vs X11? I thought X11 wasn't dropped specifically for compatibility?
