this annoys me immensely, pro video editors and other have been using resolutions like 2500x1400 or sum shit FOR YEARS NOW... you could have bought a monitor with that resolution if you wanted... yet when apple simply renames really high definitions or extreme definitions or whatefuckever every appletard is like "oh my retinas... ... oh my vaginas"
btw 4K is going to be the defacto standard for hi def in a couple of years so who cares about your crappy retinas

This is great! Wayland is an experiment, lets see how it pans out... It seems that toolkit support is coming along nicely, at least kwin is planning support for it. The odds are good.

Apple has the muscle to make them mainstream, and I for one am glad of it.

?Unity, GNOME Shell, and KDE desktops all looked like shit at 2880 x 1800 on the Retina MacBook Pro. The text was difficult to read and even when toying around with different scaling factors, the text ended up looking awkward in relation to icons and other visuals.?
Everybody is acting as if porting to Wayland was the more pressing issue. Wayland itself will need a year or so to mature. Retina displays are on the market right now and other vendors will soon follow.

As for Wayland, I don't think there's much to say. They hit a huge milestone and now developers have something usable on their hands. This is big, but nothing that our comments can help. We'll have to wait and see how this plays out in the end, but we'll have to wait for another year imho.

i always wanted to ask Kristian H?gsberg the cause of the infamous x.org restarts, how windows or mac deal with a similar situation and how wayland would.
edit: i found the article talking about this exact issue.

Yes, Windows can update the driver without restarting, I'll give them that. But they still can't update IE without rebooting. And on my system IE has been disabled the second after it downloaded Seamonkey!
So there's good and bad, but ideally both sides will take the better parts and improve upon that.
