5 replies to my posts, could be summarized as "Wayland works for me in Gnome and KDE", exactly what I was talking about. "It works for me, I couldn't care less about anything else" but surprisingly there are over 15 Wayland implementations, and none outside Gnome and KDE is actually ready for the desktop and offers a full array of features now present in the Wayland spec. And what about poor BSD folks which this topic is about? Local Wayland experts again show an abject lack of logic, reasoning and common sense, but demonstrate in spades a ton of zealotry.
Oh, and "back in the 80s, early 90s there were multiple X11 implementations". It's so bloody ridiculous to hear this "argument". Guess what, we are on Phoronix, a website dedicated to LINUX and Linux has had a single goddamn X11 implementation, first XFree86 and then Xorg. Boom, a straw man presented in defense of a zoo of Wayland implementations which are not interchangeable and which are heavily glued to their respective DEs, something which has never been the case for X11 implementations.
wlroots/weston or louvre being a common library, like really?? Why does neither Kwin, nor Mutter use it? False arguments against X11, false arguments for Wayland. The 1001st such topic here on Phoronix. And I'm "an idiot and should shut the f up". Yeah, right, that's been the best argument so far. I will. Thanks a lot.
