Wayland is the downfall of the Linux Desktop and the FOSS desktop ecosystem in general. It is actively developer hostile, overly complicated and the technical merits are questionable at best. It has the wrong philosophy about absolutely everything. Not only are simple and trivial things hard to do. Most things can't be done because standardized interfaces don't exist. The "process" of standardizing even the smallest features, no matter how essential through the "Wayland committee" takes literally multiple years.
What people really need is a "desktop protocol" not a "display protocol".
