Debian, for one, has not switched to Wayland entirely. I didn't read on; counterfactuals tend to have that effect on me.
- the_why_of_y 5y agoDebian has switched to Wayland with the release of buster (version 10) in 2019. https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/release-notes/ch-whats-new.en.html#wayland-by-default-on-gnome https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/release-notes/c...
- denton-scratch 5y agoThe Debian default became Wayland with Buster. Xorg is still supported. The very second sentence of the linked release notes states that Xorg is still installed by default.
- the_why_of_y 5y agoYes, of course. Same as every other distro that defaults to Wayland today.
