KDE Plasma 6 made it to Arch about a week before Tumbleweed. Tumbleweed is also still using Xorg by default for Plasma 6. That said both had it in their repos withing 2 weeks of release. Is there some history here for Gnome on Arch?
Seriously Linus memes must have 20k of the remaining 35k users.
I don't know. As a fan of the genre there seems to be renewed interest from some very grass roots developers. I would have agreed with your take in 2020, but in 2023 we have announcements of:
- the Riot MMO
- Ashes of Creation
- The Ghost studios MMO
These are all still in development, some still in the very early stages. But I would say there appears to be renewed interest in the genre by developers. These projects are major investments by industry veterans. There is more hope for a major new game.now than there has been in the last decade.
At minimum someone has in a traffic fatality.
That's the thing though. I think this attitude is incredibly pervasive in tech more broadly. No one hires juniors. They don't want to train and invest in inexperienced employees. Instead firms will hire seniors, milk them for every hour they are willing to dedicate.
Those that care give it their all and burn out after only a couple years. Especially when they see their extra efforts go unrewarded. The burnt husk of a human that comes out the other end will usually quit for greener pastures and the chance to start fresh where they are hopefully recognized. They are now someone else's problem.
Then you end up with the poor souls that have experienced this cycle 2-3 times, don't give a shit and just coast by giving the firm the minimum effort to avoid a bad performance review.
Unfortunately I think the current tech culture is very hostile to anyone who is young or cared.
It's the best of both worlds. Young, tight knit community with a mature UX.
Wayland has a mouse capture bug in proton / wine. It particularly seems to be an issue in FPS games. That may contributing to slower adoption for Linux gamers.
