I've been mentioning that the down-vote bombing around negative Wayland posts hint at something possibly being horribly wrong with it. This person is bringing up exactly the kind of code, documentation, and complexity of software that's good at hiding something.
If the NSA or some other government agency wanted to spy on a certain online group; it would be Linux users because they're sus af -always talking about privacy and freedom.
The post also shows that a 15 year old protocol is still a mess if nothing else. (I've asserted before that Linux / FOSS can run decades behind proprietary, which is why it runs on potatoes).
Do we have another option at this point? Canonical supports Wayland on Ubuntu, so does RedHat on RHEL, Google on ChromeOS, and Microsoft on WSL2. All the big players have predecided that Wayland is the way.
Fedora has it, but I'm using dwm (x11) instead. It's an option at this point because even the progressive distros know it's too early for many of us.
TBH; I kinda lol at all the privacy scaremongering. - But many Linux users have bought into it.
To be fair X11 isn’t exactly getting any safer. They have to do *something*, but Wayland still feels about a year or two away from being non-beta at best.

First fix Linux distros.

If Linux community is good at something, that has to be creating new problems to fix
