Going all-in on a Wayland future

Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

    Wayland should have been the HotNewShit© that the crazy people use, and everything learned from that experiment should have become the ACTUAL next thing everyone uses.
    Pushing wayland like it is now was a bad idea.

    I would have loved to wait for it’s successor, but “use LTS old versions or eat shit” is apparently acceptable now.
