- etaioinshrdlu 7y agoI think the way forward is to adopt Wayland and use compatibility layers to allow old apps to work forever. And to not feel bad about that.
- pmarin 7y agoThe problem is that Wayland never going to reach feature parity by design for security and other opinionated reasons that alienate many power users.
