Last time I was using Linux a lot, everyone was super hyped for Wayland replacing X completely. That was like, 5 years ago. Did that ever happen? Did that result in any major changes?

    Doesn't Ubuntu has Wayland as the default on GNOME? Fedora also enabled it for KDE and I hear the next KDE release is gonna be great Wayland-wise which is when I'll probably switch

      Fedora has defaulted to Wayland for several years now unless you're using the proprietary nvidia driver from RPM Fusion. At least on the default Gnome desktop.

      yep thats my plan too. It's already really good and I don't have any real problems with it so when KDE does it's finishing touches on wayland I'm hopping on to the wayland train.
