The future of the Linux desktop is here! Linux is finally going to be modern and beat windows 11.

I'm sorry, I just won't use Wayland
I know, I know... but I just won't!

Would be nice. Even if only 10% of the market ends up using Linux it puts it in a position of being a notable demographic for development.

That's the hard part, isn't it? I really don't give a shit how my computer puts pixels on the screen but every time I set up a machine, wayland breaks something that drives me back to X11.
