Why is this deprecated shit popular in /g/? They don't

>wayland
totally broken on my laptop, I had to force gdm to use x11 backend

>>52633072
We will have to wait a couple of months/years to see Wayland as a stable replacement for X, there will be a fuckton of compatibility issues, specially with the 30 linux games available

>>52633242
It's not finished yet, I don't get why people are already trying to fully migrate. Support should be added bumpy not be the primary.

> this deprecated shit
I'm listening

>wayland
No idea what this shit is, knowing /g/tards its inconsequential

>trying to fully migrate.
wayland is the default backend in gdm, I did not try to migrate at all

I'm sorry I replied to your bait.

It's simple and slim.

If xfce doesn't get the Wayland support, then I'll switch. As simple as that, I have the choice to do so.

>your bait
It was completely genuine
Also my current install began as LXDE untill the inferiority of the panel widgets forced an upgrade to XFCE.

>>52633072
>Wayland is soon being stable for gnome
1) GNOME is ass
2) "soon", yeah, it's been "soon" for three years now... Wayland is vaporware

>>52633602
It is already released in gnome and testing in KDE. Not the mention that Fedora 24 will have Wayland as default.

>>52633669
Interesting, then it might happen.

I still refuse to use GNOME though and will continue to use Xfce until someone makes a decent DE.

>inb4 MATE
MATE suffers from the fact that not may devs are actively working on it. It's simply falling behind because of this.

>>52633694
that's why I use gnome3

>>52633669
>Fedora 24 will have Wayland as default.
Fedora is a steaming shit pile so wayland should go well there.

It's gonna need a beefy miracle.

>>52633871


Fedora is still better than any Debian based distros.

>>52633892
I'd rather just run Debian to be quite honest.

>>52633072
XFCE + Compton is the perfect combination of lightweightness and features.

Just works.

>>52633072
xfce 4.14 will be GTK3 only and will support wayland.

There's no better alternative
