The overwhelming majority of people who worked on x11 are retired and a growing minority are dead.

This is the fourth incarnation of x11 and the people working on it now have nothing to do with the people who developed it.

Xorg is the castodian group who started life as a fork, of a fork, of a fork of an spinout from mit.

Them trying to kill X11 is laughable to anyone who knows anything about its history.

Wayland on the other hand is now 18 years old and we've been told it will be good any day now for 18 years.

I mean, Wayland works fine for me. I'm using niri and an nvidia card.

[seanhunter]

Yeah. From what you read on here you would think it was totally unusable. Yet I use wayland all day every day. I use an AMD card and it even works. Sway for work KDE plasma for games. Everything I use works completely fine in wayland.
