Do not tip the servers. It scares the sysadmins.

~~Not if you're on wayland. It really does break everything.~~

Vaxry implemented it in Hyprland a few days ago, which is not at all surprising from him.

I know that's the only way to change how the system works, but at the same time my conscience yells at me and tells me that if I don't tip them, they might not be able to buy a necessity because they don't make as much as counter staff.

I feel like it's a catch 22
