The good news is we’re only 4 years away from Wayland’s replacement being born, if it follows Xfree86/Xorg’s timeline (yeah, that is how far into its existence it is, shocking given the state of it). Not if it follows the X Window protocol’s timeline, but I don’t think it’s on the same level as that, longevity-wise, even if “wayland’s just a protocol” (eyeroll) I’m holding out for that before I do much with the Linux desktop again. This split-desktop-system fiasco has dragged on for years and still sucks every time I pop back in to take a look. Maybe whatever red hat decides we’re all using next will finally get this right.
