Wayland was such a bad implementation and execution from the start. Almost 2 decades passed and it's still not usable. Xorg with all its faults is still much more usable and the architecture, though bad, makes much more sense than what wayland is doing.
Downvote me all you want.
Wayland works just fine for me which xoeg doesn't
Can't downvoted truth.
Compiz and XGL came out in 2006 and showed the way. Then this overengineered mess started.
Except it's a nonsense point, x.org working is precisely why there was no reason to rush it out. They made an EXCELLENT implementation rather than the MVP that x.org is.
There was no reason to rush, because x.org still worked... the point was to create an excellent from the ground up implementation, that takes tons of time.
Why would they rush it out if there's something that already works fine? That'd completely defeat the purpose of it.
Ok, now stop doing whatever it is that they're doing to the cursor layer that makes it feel like garbage (wlroots is especially bad, KDE less so but not as good as either Xorg or Windows, GNOME too but has other cursor issues so...) and then I'll finally consider daily driving any of this stuff
Do you mean the inconsistent cursor size across applications? I have this on a fresh Fedora install and it's a bad look.
What are the issues?
How is hyprland?
I don't see why anybody cares how long it takes, you can use x.org still, the point of wayland is to create something excellent from the ground up to replace x.org, not to create a product as quickly as possible. X still works, use it. If wayland doesn't meet your needs yet, wayland will eventually meet your needs.
and yet "it is not enough for professional color management needs including photo editing and print preview."
12 fucking years....
The extension enables proper interactions between traditional (sRGB), Wide Color Gamut (WCG), and High Dynamic Range (HDR) image sources and displays once implemented in Wayland compositors and used in applications.
