Wow it's fucking nothing

./configure --enable-x11 --disable-wayland

Still

Tfw I do that because of nvidia

So, as an average GNU/Linux user, why should I use this over whatever the current default is?

They're not "switching back". Ubuntu 18.04 LTS uses Xorg default like how 16.04 LTS uses Xorg by default. It's the stable release.

its gonna be so fun, wayland support in KDE is so pathetic and incomplete.

you shouldn't.

stop shilling, you masturbating monkey

Neat, that means once I upgrade my KDE Neon to 5.13 it will break everything again on my X220, can't wait

it will still have x, just no new features will be added

I hope x support completly gets shutdown.
Then all wayland problems would get fixed in few days

Well, if you use Gnome and a laptop then you get a much better user experience.

I don't know what gnome is or does, sorry.

It’s one of the two big desktop environments for Unix-likes.

I don't know what unix is or does, sorry.

You probably don’t belong on this board then.

you just got memed by the freshest meme of today.

I don't know what this board is or does, sorry.

Where's my wayland openbox alternative?

What is wayland?

Dude, it's the new maymay.
an actual GNOME dev actually said "I don't know what XFCE is or does, sorry."

New windowing system, replaces ancient X

Have source? I want to see that shit with my own eyes.

What's Sway like?

Also, what's the situation like on Wayland with screen lockers? Can I use whatever screen locker I want (currently i3lock-color on KDE) or does Wayland mean I'm forced to use my DE's provided screen locker?

Wayland have strange accel curve of mouse, as well, I can't ICC.
