Sad news about mpv and GNOME

https://linuxreviews.org/Mpv_drops_GNOME_support

saying that is sad is like saying nvidia is doing an good job with mocking bothering the community with eglstreams. We have standards so we can swap packages interchangeably to create our own environment and GNOME is braking that requiring devs to make separate changes to work with a specific software that does not implement widespread protocols. I would love to see more projects dropping GNOME support until this has been fixed.
