I haven't seen any tearing in X in at least 5 years - with nvidia, nouveau and intel drivers. I don't think I'm doing anything special to achieve this, so your comment seems like a strange assertion to me?
I agree that X11 has some faults, and I really want Wayland to work, but everytime I try it, something ends up being broken.
- usr1106 2y agoI do see heavy tearing when watching videos under i3 on Ubuntu LTS and a 60 Hz monitor. So what? I just don't care. Tearing in videos does not hinder me from getting my work done. Watching videos is just wasting time most of the cases anyway.

It's fine for you to not care about that usecase, but other people do care and that's also valid. There even exist devices that mostly exist to watch video and we'd really like Linux and some standard graphics stack to work on them.
- usr1106 2y agoSure, I have no problem with people wanting to fix it. My datapoint was just in reply to someone writing that tearing under X has not occurred for 5 years.
