*handwaves* since video encoding is about only sending changes it's usually really really really low bandwidth to send a desktop since it's all highly compressible it actually ends up being worse the X11 network transparent way because every single client (i.e. every single window) has to handle the redraws themselves

x11 just wasn't designed with modern constraints in mind x11 literally renders fonts to bitmaps on client side and sends them to the display

Er, that's backwards. It used to render fonts on the server. Then there was the X Font Server to support Type 1 fonts. Now you send bitmaps into a server-maintained global glyph cache, and say "copy the glyph from X,Y in the glyph cache to this position". And it turns out that's the best approach, since font rendering is surprisingly complex and every application wants it done slightly differently.

But apparently you know more than the guy who had to rewrite a good portion of the font stack to make GL rendering mix with server-side glyphs. Because otherwise GL applications can't get subpixel rendered text.

eschaton posted:my endless saw an update to version 2.4 of its OS, so I slightly closer to doing so Lots of tiny stuff, lots of bug fixes and under the hood changes. 357 core OS bugs were closed, and 257 application bugs were fixed. Boot speed should be significantly improved. We support a lot more printers now. Various system applications were updated and rebased. Lots of tiny optimizations to applications and our toolkits. There were lots of HW-specific bug fixes related to video decoding, audio and other things. I think we're winding down on OS development now that it's mostly OK. We only have one major UI redesign to our OS at this point. Most of the new design and development is going into applications, and new frameworks and core OS features to support applications. Knowledge apps / encyclopedia a few more features, and we made steady progress on a big feature which will likely be in the next release at this point. It didn't make this release, unfortunately.
