disorderlyf<p>As much as I like <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wayland</span></a> and want everyone else to be able to swap to Wayland based compositors, I'd be remiss if I didn't bring up how many growing pains there were for it to be usable for me and how many people can't use it because of either broken components of it or features of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/X11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>X11</span></a> that have no plans to be brought to Wayland.</p><p>If <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RedHat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedHat</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Gnone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gnone</span></a> want everyone else to swap to it or find other <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DesktopEnvironments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DesktopEnvironments</span></a> or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LinuxDistros" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxDistros</span></a> then as I said in a previous reply, they need to put their money where their mouth is. Delegate employees to contribute fixes to the issues people are bringing up, stop bikeshedding every issue. You're telling me the biggest names in all of Linux can't patch in a workaround while you make a perfect protocol? Many of the naysayers I see are people whose issues are complete dealbrakers for them. This isn't "Oh, I'd switch to Linux if that one app was ever ported." This is "I can't swap because a core part of my workflow is broken or I have accessibility needs that make it impossible to use a computer otherwise and you either refuse to fix it or insist every detail of a proposed fix has to be exactly perfect."</p><p>If you're going to insist people swap but not work on these issues, then don't be surprised if even stronger proponents walk away. Hell, I'd almost encourage an Xlibre style fork. Just hopefully not from a conspiratorial wannabe nazi, please</p>
