>Isn't it logical that after 10+ years of making things also possible on BSD, we now have Linux as main focus?

Sure. But then don't keep lying and pretending it is portable. If you are writing linux only software then don't get mad when BSD people call it linux only software.

Did you actually read the blog post? It seems like you didn't. Did you also read https://wiki.gnome.org/ReleasePlanning/WhatWeRelease? Do you understand what I mean with main focus? It means we try to ensure that it is portable, but we don't go out of our way to make it already works anywhere other than Linux. While at the same time, some people are actually doing that more than ever before.

Your summary of "keep lying" is so far off that I guess you just didn't read the blogpost, nor my comment in any detail.

I am responding to what you just said, not the blog post. Again, feel free to write linux only software. But if you do that and then call BSD people liars when they call your linux only software linux only software, then expect to be called on it.
