wayland+latest mesa the graphics stack is in pretty darn good shape these days if you are on either Intel or AMD hw. I remember f**ing about with custom modelines hoping not to cook my CRT monitor with resolutions you could count up to with your newborn as a numeric song.
pulseaudio works for the average joe but its got to go, its garbage for professional audio, jack needs to be made user friendly and more integrated into the eco-system and improved not to disrupt average joe.

Professional
Adjective - Engaged in a specified activity as one's main paid occupation rather than as an amateur. "a professional boxer"
Noun - A person engaged in a specified activity, especially a sport, as a main paid occupation rather than as a pastime: "his first season as a professional"
The Dota 2 International total prize pool was $20,770,460 USD for 2016 Tournament with 5.8 million spectators. Just because you don't need a formal education to take part does not mean that any person out there can achieve wat the professional players are doing.

Although among the least popular DE's, we have Trinity Desktop Environment which still uses ARTS. So it's not "we had" but "we have".

Pulseaudio works reasonably well nowadays, it has the functionality people nowadays want. The main problem with it is the high latency.
