Wayland is the successor to the X server (X11, Xorg) to implement the graphics stack on Linux. The Wayland project was actually started in 2008, a year before I created the i3 tiling window manager for X11 in 2009 — but for the last 18 years (!), Wayland was never usable on my computers. I don’t want to be stuck on deprecated software, so I try to start using Wayland each year, and this articles outlines what keeps me from migrating to Wayland in 2026.
he got hardware that worked with the default setup for the majority of linux DEs at the time… he literally followed your suggestion and has been waiting for support for it in wayland for a decade.
this has to be the dumbest argument I’ve seen in a few months on here. you’re literally telling someone to sell their car because you want them to switch to a different kind of engine that currently isn’t compatible with their car, even though they haven’t wanted to switch to a new engine for a decade.
Wow, you must be really bad at everything then.
What I’m saying is you don’t by a fucking car before they build the roads to the area you want to drive to. Using your analogy which even you can’t make work 🤣
He didn’t. He wanted to use x11. You are completely incapable of reading. My analogy makes more sense because it’s describing what he did.
If you’re too stupid to click a fucking link at the top of the article, then read my very simple comment detailing his history with this from 2017—not 2025—then it is you can’t read, and are just flailing and pathetic here. Can’t help you, kid.
