I really don't like Wayland, I recently (last Friday) had to revert back to X because somehow they messed up enough that in Zoom screensharing during a meeting with XWayland can crash my audio drivers.

At this point I don't know who it is for, but it's not for users.

> EGLStream support is removed

Wait, does this mean Nvidia won't have GPU acceleration for apps under XWayland anymore? Or is EGLStream not what I think it is?

Do we really need the editorializing in the title?

We should stick to X11, now that https://xlibre.net is in full swing... prove me wrong?

At this point, I'm half convinced that someone with $100k in api spend of Fable tokens can create a better replacement for X11/Wayland, and patch all common open source apps to leverage it.
