Oh look, another emotional "I hate X11 and screw you for pointing out that Wayland still hasn't reached feature parity" rant. If y'all spent as much time coding as gaslighting people it might actually work already.
> It’s perfectly valid if you’re staying on Xorg because some features don’t quite work just yet, especially when it comes to accessibility. But that ship can only keep floating for so long.
It has been fifteen years. Eventually the conversion largely moved from "well just don't use that feature" to "someday we should provide that" with occasional breakthroughs to "okay, it works in these 3 compositors so that counts, right?" There was a time when I joked abut Wayland reaching feature parity around the same age X was when Wayland started, but it's not a joke anymore.
> Try out Wayland every once in a while if it doesn’t work for you, and keep an eye on the relevant discussions.
I did, once. Eventually it got old and I stopped paying addition.
I think I’ll end this off with:
Wayland: it’s all TODOs, and not all of them work.
