"Low-hanging fruit" just means the bugs were easy to find. It doesn't indicate any severity. It just means he didn't have to put in lots of effort.
Oh, and the same guy did a similar "low-hanging fruits" at a previous conference. But here he outright says to use OpenBSD's code (Xenocara) for every OS that's using Xorg. And at the very end he also admits that using a software framebuffer (like vesa, or wsfb) is safer than the accelerated X servers. But you have to watch the whole talk to understand why.
X used to be much simpler and cleaner in the 90's, before all that accelerated shit for 3D cards got shoved in

Why do you think they're working on Wayland now?
Dylan Taylor
idk if Wayland will be the piece of tech that replaces X11 eventually. idk, i am not convinced yet. Wayland is vaporware imo.
Noah Flores
No, it's just around the corner.

OpenBSD has dev team of 20. An outside guy comes in and found new things with a fresh set of eyes. Then OpenBSD quickly fixed what was found. I fail so see how this is BTFO. CoC/Linux has 1000x the (((man)))power. With that many Xe's working on it the code should be perfect by now.
Netcraft has confirmed: *BSD is dying
Connor Hughes
Wayland is already here, it's just not going to replace X11. Wayland and X11 are going to exist together as different options you can choose from for the forseeable future.
Lincoln Parker
You fucking kidding me? This number must be wrong because I met a lot of OpenBSD fans IRL already!
Cameron Cox
Used BSDI/FBSD back in the 90's for file servers, email n chit. Eventually moved to Sparc.
Sad to see.

Because FDO spontaneously combust if they don't reinvent something badly every few years. Only half joking.

That is an old copypasta from /.
