I made a serious effort to switch to Wayland, which involved ~3000 lines of code to hammer the experiences I like in fvwm3 into labwc and it still feels imperfect (X11 has too many clipboards, but Wayland has too few)
There are some minor more-smooth experiences (games don’t microstutter when I change audio tracks) but the steak isn’t really worth the sizzle.
I’ve seen your comments. I get it, you hate video games, young people and Gabe Newell. Do you need to bring it up at any opportunity? How do you even connect this to the wayland vs. Xorg disussion?
I don’t know why this is a thing, but i’ve seen it before where people claim wayland is only good for gamers, and since gamers are cringe to them they don’t like it lol. It’s funny to me considering wayland had forced vsync for the longest time and they refused to change it.
I don’t hate computer games or young people, I’ve had both for ages.
I’m not a big fan of Valve, or the billionaire running the app store from his mega yachts.
BTW’ing seems relevant. It’s an ecosystem that’s been largely focused on turning a gnu/linux workstation into an x86_64 Steam player for over a decade and now Valve are using BTW as $UPSTREAM. It’s what this kinda thing evolved into as actually compiling stuff was harder than copy and pasting ''yaourt eyebleach-kitchen-sink-bin steam" https://www.shlomifish.org/humour/by-others/funroll-loops/Gentoo-is-Rice.html
Ask a question on X11 in the world of BSD, Debian, RHEL, Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, Gentoo, Alpine, Rocky, MX or in the nerd mines of Phoronix, Linux Questions or Stack Exchange and people will help that have knowledge, ask in BTW lands and there will be witch hunt by people who have no idea what they are talking about.
If X11 goes down it would be like Mad Max: International banking and airports screens would just go black, Moscow, Pyongyang and Beijing too…even more important stuff like adverts could stop working at scale.

is your wayland config(?) available somewhere? i also use fvwm3 and want to try wayland, tried KDE6 but it really doesn’t fit me.
Yeah, it’s the younglings trying raise money to get Gabe a better yacht afaiu.
BTW’ing I think they call it.

How out of touch can you get?
