Jesus, there’s so much FUD in that gist. A lot of information out of date and emotional tone to the brim. Makes you wonder who’s putting that much time and effort to support an outdated system like x11 and what they gain from that.
The reality is that the main desktop managers, and by extension the most popular distros are abandoning x11.















That’s the other part that’s a bit problematic. There is some async support, but ORM calls, to my knowledge, are still blocking. There has been some effort put into it, but I’m not sure they’ll manage to reimplement it. Other parts of the framework and third party middlewares are blocking too, which makes writing async Django a bit of a minefield.
There needs to be a non negligible amount of work to make sure a given request remains asynchronous across all layers today.
