Quite the unpopular opinion, but I just wanted to post this to show the silent majority that we still exist. We have reached a point where voicing criticism against wayland is treated like the worst thing ever and leads you to being censored and what not. The red hat funded multi year long shill campaign has proven to be quite successful. Now do the same for immutable distros and every new buzzword that restricts your ability to make changes to your system and the long term plan of completely sabotaging the linux desktop will finally come true. That is all.

Okay so that’s a link. You were asked a direct question. Can you not answer it with your own words?
It’s not worth it if my post gets deleted by the time i finish writing anything
Wayland has it’s fair share of problems that haven’t been solved yet, but most of those points are nonsense.
If that person lived a little over a hundred years ago and wrote a rant about cars vs horses instead, it’d go something like this:
The rant you’re linking makes about as much sense.
I wouldn’t recommend shoving your dick in a horse’s mouth, though. But you do you.
Is wayland the horse here. That would make sense. Xorg would be the car since it is objectively better and actually works. The only “benefits” of wayland would be similar to saying horses are better since they don’t contribute to global warming.
Dude - you’re either stupid enough to not realise the irony of what you’ve just said, or you’re trolling. For your sake, I kinda hope it’s the latter
Most of them are totally false… or completely dumb. if an application “doesn’t support wayland” it doesn’t mean that you can’t do the thing with something else, or the devs are working to support it…
The fact that such a thing exists shows the intentional flaw. Why should an application write different code for multiple compositors? It’s almost like they want devs to feel frustrated.
Wait til you hear about other OS, or even how most windows 95 apps doesn’t work in later OS
