Indeed; and if you read that article it says that current Wayland compositors depend heavily on Linux infrastructure, and have not yet accepted patches to support NetBSD. Everything Wayland on the BSDs is in the "one guy faffing about to see if he can get it working" stage. Unless/until the Wayland project starts mainlining BSD support, or the BSD projects have robust parallel maintenance of the core Wayland packages and compositors, BSD as a desktop system is dead in the water.

People not having the same priorities as you does not equate to death. You are being rude and overly dramatic.

And that's what Wayland wants.

"We will only develop for Linux if you want it do it yourself" is the vibe I get from the Wayland team.

Why should FreeBSD be the ones who have to develop? The stubbornness of Linux users.
