Help! I'm getting screen tearing in the new twitter!

[-] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

I feel like Y should be the successor to X.

[-] fujiwood@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Whyland doesn't sound as good though.

[-] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Like this one that never took off? https://www.y-windows.org/

[-] PeleSpirit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Do you mean like X, Why?, Z

they do NOT get the joke!!!1!!

[-] AffineConnection@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The X window system is actually the successor to the W window system.

[-] red@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

There actually was a short-lived attempt to create a Y window system as a successor to X (before Wayland).

Funnily enough the website is still live, despite no progress in almost 20 years: https://y-windows.org

[-] arkannon@iusearchlinux.fyi 4 points 1 year ago

Ahhh I can see the graphical glitches already

[-] FellowHuman@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Can someone please ELI5 this to me? Everyone seems to get it (as a joke?) but me.

Ooh, it's the logo, god damn it, got it 2 secconds after posting this.

[-] flamingos@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago

Just in case anyone else stumbles across this and is confused, I'll explain in more detail.

On Linux there are two display server protocols, the very old X11 and the newer Wayland, which was designed as a successor to X11 by its maintainers.

Elon Musk announced today that he is renaming Twitter to X (yes, just X). The above posts takes the mick out of this on this by announcing a social media website called Wayland, i.e. the successor to Musk's X.
