      How hard do you have to search to find these x11 fanboys? Because whenever this topic comes up, the only detractors I see are users who complain because they can’t use wayland for various reasons.

      On the other hand those on the other extreme are easier to find, as they always celebrate x11 users (willingly or not) getting screwed; so toxic.

      I don’t think anyone is an X11 fan boy. We all know Wayland is the future. I would be using it if it worked on my machine.

          I was going to say, you haven’t been on the internet long enough if you think there aren’t people out there petty enough to defend a dying display server 😂

          X11 development is dead so it really is just a matter of time before Wayland is the norm and you’ll be saying stuff like “back in my days we used X11 and we liked it!”

          Wayland is already the present for most Linux users.

          Shit, it’s been enabled by default on Debian since 2019. Debian. The famously slow-moving distro.

              You could also list a bunch of insane stuff about X11. The security being hilariously bad, random tearing all the time, terrible multi-monitor support, terrible gesture support, etc.

              X11 lacks basic functionality.
