    Oh, come on. Wayland is shipped by default by a lot of distros now because it’s perfectly stable and usable in the vast majority of use cases and hardware. For every story about wayland falling down, I can come up with a dozen “stupid shit X11 does now because it’s unmaintained and dev X tries to do something new with his app” stories. I do silly things like run 6 monitors on 2 GPUs on a Core 2Duo, and it runs like a top. If there’s a problem, it’s always something dumb i’ve done like knocked a cable than it is that Wayland has shit the bed. And it’s been working like that for 2 years.

    I ran a Pinephone for a year as a DD back in the early days, it was a pain in the ass but it was possible if you were stubborn enough. But it was no Android. But then again, it wasn’t Android.
