<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@sushee" class="u-url mention">@<span>sushee</span></a></span> fixing important infra libs still leaves us with the xkcd-meme of one small thingy propping everything up. While I agree we need to fix these libs and carry some of the maintainers burden, I wonder: wouldn&#39;t it be better to circulate well-written, detailed design documents and diversify the implementations?</p><p>The reason everyone is stuck with Xz is because there&#39;s no other lib, say, kz, that could function as a drop-in replacement. And (to my knowledge) no easy way to make one.</p>
