> Switching to Wayland today means replacing most of the apps you're used to already. If you mean things like xdotool or a screenshotter, then sure. Otherwise, I can't imagine why you'd do this — at least I didn't have to replace anything (besides a couple of low-level things mentioned above). Old stuff continues to work via xwayland and I only ever notice it because I added a special marker to xwayland windows (to remove xwayland from my system when I notice that it's not used anymore by anything). > requiring every single program to support Wayland compositors do not require "every" application to support them. Most old applications continue to work fine through xwayland (for me it's mostly JetBrains' IDEs — you don't notice it's not a fully "native" application unless you look for it), and everything using toolkits like Qt should just work.
