With the 2026.08 ISO release, Artix switched back to Xorg. The switch had been decided soon after the 2026.04 release, due to the unusually high amount of XLibre-related bug reports on our forum and started with our weekly ISO images. This resulted in backlash from XLibre and a veteran Artix developer, Artist, was targeted and harassed, which led to his resignation.
Those XLibre developers must be lovely people…
I wonder if it’s the same dev I saw on reddit once, bashing everyone on several related subs, and spamming about XLibre.
