Thanks for taking the time to reply, that makes a lot of sense.
I haven’t switched to Wayland yet. It makes sense why xscreensaver wouldn’t work well with an entirely different window server. I was just surprised it was so difficult (for me at least) to use with modern window managers despite being relevant and mature, haha.
It takes a long time to deliver these decisions. The majority opinion is written weeks beforehand, with hundreds of man hours put into it by the justices and their clerks. Alito would have already read and approved it (or he would have joined Thomas in dissent). They heard the arguments for the case on another day, this is just the deliverance of the ruling.
