Agreed that it’s made the best show of attempting, but Wayland’s only got about nine years before it’s as old as x11 (the protocol) was when the Wayland showed up.

If it’s gonna mostly displace x11… man, it’s sure taking its time.

It’s older than xfree86 was when the xorg fork occurred.

Yes, and I'm fine waiting 5, 10, or 20 years. It's natural that such major shifts take a long time in an already mature ecosystem.
