Wayland is not killing smaller distributions. Who even came up with that batshit crazy idea?

Killing is overly dramatic, but it’s putting a burden on certain projects if they want to convert to it and not all have the resources to tank it. I don’t see Window Maker porting their toolkit to Wayland, for instance.

But XWayland exists so I don’t see what’s the fuss.

My comment was about distributions specifically and those package Wayland since ages.

Might as well be someone on lemmy since you reposted it here?

Doesn’t mean I agree with it. It’s still an interesting topic to discuss IMO, hence the repost.
