    What’s with Git? Sure, it is used by a lot of people, but it has some of it’s own shortcomings as a snapshot-based version control. VCS like Pijul has it’s own advantages, something to do with the patch theory of differences (disclaimer: I’m not an expert in this).

    I am also kinda opposed to enforcing XDG, because of how unstandardized it is. Like for example, to set a terminal, GNOME Shell had to hardwired a piece of code to their internals, checking to see if a particular environment variable exists, , or else use gnome-terminal, which is just bad practise.
