The author won me around to his point of view. If 15 years later this is the state of things, it's really time to cut your losses and admit the idea wasn't that great in the first place.
As an aside I am not sure the linux desktop needs "saving".
- Vilian 3y ago15 years later we are getting steam deck(wayland only) and chrome os switching to wayland, rhel deprecating xorg etc and xorg is dead in development front since them we took 15 years for adoption, not fault of wayland
- Ferret7446 3y agoEven though steam deck uses wayland, all of the software on it runs X (and XWayland), including the entire desktop mode. The fact that you're bringing up a platform that exclusively uses X for its desktop functionality, as an argument in favor of Wayland, is ironic.
- ParetoOptimal 3y agoJust to say it, running an all Wayland machine works fine on steam deck. I'm doing it with NixOS.
