You touched a good point. The one and only metric to measure success in software is the number of active users. However, i do not know of any statistics Xorg vs. Wayland users. Personally, i have no reason to switch away from X11. In contrary, it was and is a loyal companion now already for decades. I trust the Lindy effect that X11 will stay relevant for a very long time. So kudos for the OP for creating this!
- jhoechtl 4y agoSo you are not using fractional scaling which is reason enough to switch to Wayland.
- pantalaimon 4y agoThis is a Gnome issue. It works in KDE (and there are patches to make it work in Gnome too) https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Xorg https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Xorg
- yjftsjthsd-h 4y agoDifferent people care about different features. If you want fractional scaling and can't get it on X11, use Wayland. If you want AHK, use X11. Unfortunately, neither option currently has all the features of the other.
