> Is this saying xorg server is dead? That's what the sponsor of Wayland development is saying, yes. > Is there an official announcement of the death of xorg or something? No, because after fifteen fucking years of development, it still isn't good enough to work everywhere that xorg does. (Over those years it has also lost many of the much-touted "xorg server developers" that abandoned working on xorg to start on another project that was less awful to work on. Well... guess what Wayland turned into? XD xorg works, and -at least for me- most of the things that people seem to say doesn't work on it actually do [0]. Contrary to popular belief, you don't need a billion-dollar company to fund development on a piece of software that runs your application software just fine. And this isn't the fucking webdev world, so you don't need a team of twenty just to keep up with unending churn-for-churn's sake.
