[mdlug] Who Uses Wayland?

[LAP]

The Wayland GUI is usually touted as being the newfangled,
up-and-coming superior replacement for Xorg.

But I, and a lot of others, are not so enthused.

Here are some major problems with Wayland:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/issues/233

https://gist.github.com/probonopd/9feb7c20257af5dd915e3a9f2d1f2277

The gist of it all seems to be in this statement:

"As it currently stands minor WMs and DEs do not even intend
to support Wayland given the sheer complexity of writing all
the code required to support the above features [in the first
link]"

I consider the desktop paradigm to be a silly idea:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_metaphor

Consequently I use only a window manager, namely FVWM3, for a GUI.
FVWM3 is in active development and has no plans to adapt to Wayland
(for the above mentioned reason).

What are the thoughts of others on this?

I would hope that Xorg and Wayland will be two stable options
within the GNU/Linux environment, but as we have seen elsewhere,
the trend is for less choice and more hegemony.
