Good to know that finally someone do something with that try to "Embrace Extend Extuingish" unix userland with Wayland.

One day, one time I'll shutdown my Poudriere, which I use to "deWayland-ize" my programs and will forget about it

BTW, all these cringe about "X server is outdated, and lagging and crashing a lot" – was very funny to read. Ofc, I also met some problems, but everytime it was a graphical drivers (looking to u Intel & NVidia). It's always a GPU drivers.

@evgandr Exactly. I don't think I've ever seen X crashing or lagging beyond GPU driver problems.
Honestly, it was working fine even in 2004 when I had to tinker my own xorg.conf.

@chesheer Yep! I'm using #X11 since the same time and saw:

- Kernel panic because of #Nvidia drivers

- Strange glitches and system freeze because of #intel #i915 drivers (in combination with #Libreboot and probably dying #GPU )

– Lagging interface in ~2006, because I've just installed #Radeon drivers and didn't configure 3D accel in #xorgconf

- #XServer ? Lol, it just works all the time Even when manual xorg.conf configuration were replaced by HAL, then by evdev...
