>Hats off to the Wayland devs. We're cheering you from the sidelines.

Its pretty horrible how much toxic crap gets directed at the people who actually do all of the work. Just look at the amount of abuse has been flung at the SystemD developers from people who largely do not even know what it does.

Then again, mocking and taunting people for using X11, which works great for most people, repeating all over every social media outlet that “X11 is dead use Wayland LOL,” giggling about how once IBM pulls its developers from X11 that “nyaaa nyaaaaahhhhh you’ll have no choice” and other poor marketing decisions, apparently conceived by obnoxious children, have convinced many people to NEVER touch Wayland with a ten foot pole.

It’s like the System D shills - they are HYPER obnoxious. I don’t need software made inside IBM, and I don’t need software which apparently can only gain adoption by obnoxious bullying.

It’s too late for Wayland, much like it’s too late for System D. The hyper childish bullshit chased me, and many others, away.
