<spit-take> That's not "way back"!

wrapped up my talk about #wayback at @XOrgDevConf about an hour ago.
i think i’ve accomplished my goal with it: to spark a conversation on how to get the missing pieces filled in. in the Q&A a few interesting paths were identified to investigate, hopefully the hallway conversations will be similarly insightful.
my dream is to be able to come back next year and say that legacy X has been fully superseded by wayback. i feel like we are close to solving the puzzle.
@XLibreDev @antijingoist @resingm well, I've read enough drama re: this whole ordeal.
Or to put it in simple terms:
As shitty as it may seem, #Xorg is 'on live support' (like a braindead organ donor) and #Xlibre won't change the fact that the course of #Wayland is locked in.
OFC people have the right to build their own Wayland & #SystemD-free #Linux or #Unix-esque distro.
Instead I'm convinced #Wayback by @ariadne will be the solution for the problem when it comes to #X11 applications & desktops that don't work on #Xwayland!
