Isn't it funny how it is the Mac OS people implementing these changes while the Linux people aren't coming up with equivalents?

And yes, you can have a transparent terminal on Linux, make emoji work, have better scroll, etc



As Mac OS has a corporate entity behind it I don't think it is too surprising that Mac OS is in front...sort of.

Well...sure, but it looks like all they did is remove the usage of Mac specific APIs from mainline:

So they aren't so much sabotaging Emacs when it is on Mac, they are just refusing to utilize platform specific APIs and tools. Again...see my first comment.
