MODERATORS
 

Prominent KDE developer Nate Graham put out a blog post today reaffirming the KDE Plasma's intent that Wayland is their main focus and X11 support continues to be maintained but eventually it will go away. Nate Graham also noted around 73% of KDE Plasma 6 users are already using the Wayland session.

There are two groups of Linux Users.

Those who have a nice seamless experience, and those who have Nvidia GPUs

Oh don't worry it's not limited to Nvidia GPUs.

Last I even bothered trying Wayland, it still could not even start up a functional full desktop session on an Intel mobile iGPU.

Was that in the last 5 years?

Yes, funnily enough.

With the KDE / Kubuntu news, I might have to give it another try soon-ish, by the time of the next LTS most assuredly.
