Does Wayland really breakeverything?

We're hearing more about this recently because the transition is picking up steam. X11's maintainers have announced an end to its maintenance. Plasma is going Wayland by default, following GNOME. Fedora is dropping X11 support entirely. We're in the part of the transition where people who haven't thought about it at all are starting to do so and realizing that 100% of the pieces needed for their specific use cases aren't in place yet. This is good! Them being heard is how stuff happens. I wish it had happened sooner, but we are where we are, and there are a lot of recent proposals and work around things like remote control, color management, drawing tablet support, and window positioning. There will probably be an awkward period before all of these pieces are in place for all of the people. And for the those who really do suffer from showstopping omissions, I say keep using X11 until it's resolved. No one's stopping you.

Will all the people who both can and want to work on X.org please raise their hands?

Oh, no hands?

What a shame.
