    IMO Wayland surpassed X11 a long time ago… As it doesn’t shit in the pants with tearing on video play or touchscreens with multi-screen.

        X11 is heavily outdated and vulnerable, but it features one thing Wayland doesn’t: it works with everything.

        So, if Wayland checks your points, go Wayland. If something breaks - X11 is there to back you up.

          Not even always true. For me, Wayland is the only thing that runs decently on my Frankenstein monster of a setup, while X11 makes everything run insanely slow. I think everyone should try both at some point

      Man, I always read people bitching about screen tearing, but I haven’t seen it since, like, 2008. I’m starting to believe I have tremendous luck.
