    I've been using Wayland for 5 years. There were a few bugs in the beggining, but now it works great. These threads are such a waste of time.

    I have over 100 confirms X11 developments

    That's great dude. Why don't you go maintain it then, apparently nobody else wants to: https://www.phoronix.com/news/RHEL10-Removing-X.Org

    Wayland took too long

    Look up how long btrfs has been in development, or at audio subsystem churn. These things take time, because it's mostly volunteers working on them.

    Systemic complexity has doubled in the last two years

    What does this even mean?

    Mir was better

    It turns out the Canonical dumping random stuff over the wall is not the same as creating a legitimate open source community around a project.

    Unfixable amount of race conditions

    As if there's never been a synchronization bug in X... But also System76 and others are writing Wayland compositors on Rust anyway.

      "If wayland is so great why can't I run /usr/bin/wayland???" 😎
