RawTherapee uses a patched version of dcraw code to read and parse raw formats, with additional tweaks and constraints to parameters such as white levels and the raw crop area based on in-house measurements. It also supports common non-raw image formats like JPEG, PNG and TIFF as well as high dynamic range, 16/24/32-bit raw DNG images. RawTherapee supports most raw formats, including Pentax Pixel Shift, Canon Dual-Pixel, and those from Foveon and X-Trans sensors. Īll the internal processing is done in a high precision 32-bit floating point engine. These adjustments are then applied during the export process. Adjustments made by the user are immediately reflected in the preview image, though they are not physically applied to the opened image but the parameters are saved to a separate sidecar file. RawTherapee involves the concept of non-destructive editing, similar to that of some other raw conversion software. The name "Therapee" was originally an acronym derived from "The Experimental Raw Photo Editor". It is written in C++, using a GTK+ front-end and a patched version of dcraw for reading raw files.

RawTherapee was originally written by Gábor Horváth of Budapest, Hungary, and was re-licensed as free and open-source software under the GNU General Public License Version 3 in January 2010. It is cross-platform, with versions for Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux. It is notable for the advanced control it gives the user over the demosaicing and developing process. It comprises a subset of image editing operations specifically aimed at non-destructive post-production of raw photos and is primarily focused on improving a photographer's workflow by facilitating the handling of large numbers of images. "We aren't going to stop you from running Devuan with X11 and twm and no sound server, but if your desktop tears, screen capture is dog slow, your media keys stop working one day, your speakers sound terrible and tinny or don't even work at all by default (once we ship that), VSync is broken, and your display looks duller and the colors muted, don't come to us asking for help."Īlong with several other follow-up posts encouraging Asahi Linux users to focus on Wayland and less on X.Org Server usage.RawTherapee is application software for processing photographs in raw image formats, as created by many digital cameras. At that point Xorg will be relegated to SDDM, and once a native Wayland release of that finally happens, we won't be shipping any usage of the X server any more."

The reverse is true now that we have GPU drivers, and we will be switching all default-Xorg-KDE users to default-Wayland in an update (along with promoting the GPU drivers to the default builds) really soon. The only reason we shipped Xorg by default is that Wayland compositors were slower with software rendering.

We won't be working on any features or non-desktop-breaking bugs beyond that. showing a working desktop), but that's it. We do expect Xorg to continue to function for the bare essentials (i.e. The major players in desktop Linux have decided it's time to move on from Xorg, and if you want to go against the tide you're on your own. Yes, not every random app and feature you use on Xorg will have a Wayland equivalent. But for anything that goes beyond "displaying windows" (compositors, IMEs, input management, desktop environments, etc.), please use native Wayland applications, since XWayland will never integrate properly for those things (by design). XWayland will continue to be supported for legacy client apps, and we do plan to spend time on optimizing the XWayland experience. It's pointless to try to support it well today on a new platform. Distributions and major desktop environments are already dropping Xorg support. That doesn't mean Xorg isn't broken, it means those platforms have spent years working around Xorg's failings. Yes, some Xorg things might work better on other platforms. We strive for a quality desktop on Apple Silicon machines, but we have to pick and choose our battles very carefully, because we can't single-handedly fix all the problems in the entire Linux desktop ecosystem. It's all but unmaintained, broken in fundamental ways that cannot be fixed, unsuited to modern display hardware (like these machines), and we absolutely do not have the bandwidth to spend time on it.

"Please, please stop using Xorg with Asahi Linux. Writing what many other Linux distribution vendors/developers would like to say but generally have not publicly and directly expressed, Hector Martin wrote on Mastodon for Asahi Linux users to stop using an X.Org Server. Asahi Linux lead developer Hector Martin issued a lengthy post encouraging users of this Apple Silicon focused Linux distribution to stop using X.Org as Wayland is the future.
