What’s the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven’t found anything useful on the internet, so I’m asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.

    Some things still don’t work on Wayland.
    (Like screen sharing with Anydesk, as an example I ran into yesterday)
    But at this point, I just replace the thing that still requires X11 with an alternative, or find a different solution.
    X11 is dead tech. Wayland has its own issues, but it’s better than X11 in almost every way now, actively maintained, and it’s the current standard.
