Are we Wayland yet? Are we JPEGXL yet? Are we Rust yet?

I’ve gathered a meta-tracker for the adoption state of futuristic technologies.

    If its FOSS, then it can’t be a monopoly, by definition

      I said a near-monopoly. Also, even if it’s foss, by creating the format, they established the baseline parameters of that format.

      That gives them a significant degree of control.

       


      Edit: I also hate it because so many of the programs I use don’t support it, so I constantly have to copy > paste into image editor program > Save as PNG.

      Though admittedly this is mostly an adoption thing. Still, it’s a major problem.
