And then we have X11 in the middle of everything. It's not getting younger, there are no volunteers to make releases but 'fortunately' there is not much development going on to make it a problem. Maybe FreeBSD(and other *BSD) should take more active role in X development or switch to Wayland if there is no will for the first.

Not sure what "switch to wayland" means in the context of FreeBSD, since AFAIK it has no default desktop, but wayland compositors have been working fine for me for about as long as they have on Linux. FreeBSD uses mesa and Linux graphics drivers with its own thin shim layer and everything works more or less the same. https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/wayland https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/wayland
