it doesn't matter ... we don't plan to remove eudev / xudev, seatd is not an alternative, so there's not much to talk about. who wants to experiment can .. but only on their own computer. ;)

WOW!!!  I am new here, but if so much negativity is tolerated then I don't see why I would want to stick around.  I actually installed artix so I can see all those things presented here working, or how far they are working.
From my brief experience I don't see what doesn't.  And seatd works flawlessly for what it is intended to do. 

We all work on our own computer or the one assigned to us at work, but we can still discuss what else we can do.  Preventing people on the same system to discuss among themselves the modifications they like is key to having a healthy community.

This would be understandable in Fedora or Ubuntu talking about replacing systemd, but a non-systemd community to be that narrow minded it is unbelievable.

10 thumbs down for any such comments.

No point virtue signaling and being outraged by a post made by an inactive team member.
Worse, calling out someone (alium) who isn't able to respond is just cheap. This is the second time these jokers (or one person creating alt accounts?) are trying that.

Looks like it:

According to Artoo, Alium left due to changing circumstances and a lack of free time.
While perhaps sometimes a little abrupt in manner, which newcomers didn't always understand, I would often see when searching issues reported here that Alium had already listed bug reports and sometimes patches to fix them, so there was a lot more going on than you see in the posts here.
This is the off topic section, and Alium just stated a fact which is still basically true so far as Artix DEFAULT packages go - but not what you choose personally, do what you like and you are most likely going to get helpful advice and discussion on here if you did want to install some other "dev" and some on here have done exactly that.
I think one of the limitations is Artix has to retain some general compatibility with Arch packages and the AUR to meet the majority of the userbase's expectations.

Since alium is inactive, I will not publicly state private reasons, computers are not more important than loved ones, real living humans with a soul.  In times of a scamdemic with enforced injections, maybe something to think about.

Locking the thread, since we switched to udev from systemd source for now, but still packaged as eudev
