TLDR: XFCE and Cinnamon devs are begging beginning to work on Wayland support.

Ok

Personally X11 is unusably buggy and janky. Just a clearly inferior experience.

While maybe sometimes buggy, at least things run. I’m all for modernization, but if there are compatibility problems with recent software, I’m not OK with it being declared “the better, mature standard thing everybody should now use”.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
