When's the last time your IT department gave you "multi-compositor training"?
> Software Replacement
> $500-$2000 in software replacement costs when tools don't work under Wayland
> Multi-Monitor
> X11: Reliable, consistent behavior
> Wayland: Compositor-dependent, often buggy
> Distro wars intensified: Choice of display server becomes a major differentiator

- superkuh 1y agoWell, most of the time applications don't work around the new problems wayland has introduced. Most applications on most wayland compositors cannot be used by people who need screen readers. These days in many places supporting the differently abled legally is on the way out, but I still think it's a good thing. And yeah, the dollar figures smell, but this is a real problem that the waylands introduced by not being a single wayland. One that has so far only been addressed by GNOME in their compositor by introducing two entirely new acccesibility protocols with no support for the last 30 years of accesibility. If you want to actually be following the guidelines of American's with Disabilities Act of 1990 this might matter to you.
