Wayland is a replacement for X11 which is now ten or more years old and still not feature complete. It will be the future of all graphical interfaces, or maybe we will still be running X11 with extensions in 2050.
- vidarh 3y agoI remember when GGI[1] was the future of all graphical interfaces. Remember GGI? 1994-2007 RIP. Wayland looks a bit more likely to achieve its goal, but we'll see. For my part, it'll take a long time yet before it's worth the hassle to consider switching.
