“I believe Rust is the next 40-year language. Just like the previous generation of programmers can build an entire career on C, I think the next generation will build their careers on Rust. And honestly, what an upgrade!”

At #XLibre, no Code of Conduct can be found github.com/X11Libre/xserv…. Instead, we have two simple principles: Anybody who's treating others nicely is welcome. Anybody who's interested in bringing X forward is welcome. That's it.

We forked the X.Org Server in June 2025. #Grokipedia states this fact in its X.Org Server article. #Wikipedia completely removed #XLibre from its X.Org Server article—after someone removed the political bias. #NPOV

Yesterday, our official Reddit account reddit.com/user/XLibreDev was suspended by Reddit without any communication or explanation. Previously, we posted exactly the same content as on Bluesky, Mastodon, and X (Twitter). Nothing more. @Reddit Could you please explain this?

As much as we like #Linux, we also care for #BSD s. That's why the next week will be all about them.

This screenshot shows #XLibre running on #VoidLinux. It has been removed by the moderators of the Void Linux sub #reddit reddit.com/r/voidlinux on Aug 06 without giving any reasons. @Reddit Could you please explain this?

#XLibre runs on #NetBSD. See github.com/orgs/X11Libre/…. It took one github.com/fredvs to say, “I want this to work!” and the others joined in and they together developed a solution. That’s one thing we love about #FOSS. A big thank you to all involved. #BSD #XLibreBSDsWeek

#XLibre runs on #SteamOS btw. You can use a third-party shell script to install XLibre on a Steam Deck provided at github.com/HaplessIdiot/x…. The script enables XLibre for displaying SDR content and native Gamescope Wayland/XWayland for HDR content. #ArchLinux #XLibreArchWeek

#XLibre runs on #ArchLinux btw. Some of you guessed it; others have known for a while. We've created third-party PKGBUILDs, teamed up with another AUR maintainer, and now provide x86_64 binaries. We never talked about it; now we will. WELCOME TO THE XLIBRE ON ARCH LINUX WEEK!

#XLibre runs on #DragonflyBSD. See github.com/orgs/X11Libre/…. Given our XLibre #FreeBSD ports at github.com/b-aaz/xlibre-p…, work is underway to provide DPorts too. A big thank you to github.com/b-aaz, github.com/cepelinas9000 and github.com/fredvs. #BSD #XLibreBSDsWeek

“X is dead, W. is the future! XLibre is DOA.” they said. But who would believe in this? Not our community. They freed one screen after another and call this #liberatedscreens. Now here too. Not every Friday, but on Fridays. This time: XLibre on Gentoo, daily since the beginning.
