I don’t know. Wayland support is very important (tm) to us Wayland-users, but I don’t know how the rest of the world feels about that.
It could be like that whole kerning-thing which is super-mega important to some people, while the rest of the world don’t even notice?
- stevedonovan 4y agoI've honestly never noticed the problem, so I never saw the problem with X in the first place. (It is possible that I have never experienced a truly beautiful desktop, but my eyes are no longer particularly precise enough to operate at modern pixel densities)
- izacus 4y agoThe whole point of Wayland is that you don't need "precise enough eyes" to comfortably use modern pixel densities. But for that you need a functional UI scaling system provided by the Waylands rework.
- bgorman 4y agoHiDPI support and fractional scaling are simply must-haves for anyone with a computer built after 2011.
- rwmj 4y agoPeople also complain loudly about Hi-DPI support and tearing with X. I've not noticed either of them being an issue ever. I can play videos fine and I can plug my laptop into a 55" TV, and it all just works (as far as I can tell) with plain old X11.

Why wouldn't they complain for something that affects them? If you don't have any issues, that's great for you, but that doesn't help those who do in any way, so why do you downplay their issues?
- nortonham 4y agoX always worked fine for me and my basic use case. I do agree something new is needed to replace it, but I don't have a need to try it until it's more mature.
