I am not necessarily against Wayland or new things in general.

But it bothers me when no clear upgrade path is defined ("drop your stuff" is not acceptable) and a half-hassed incomplete solution is proposed instead, and backwards compatibility is pretty much disregarded.

For what concerns my personal computing, I'll stay on Xorg until XFCE supports Wayland. Then I'll update.

Wayland was the last straw for me. It made me switch to Macs after 20 years of almost exclusive Linux on the desktop and a few dev stints. It was cool when my time was less expensive.

I check the state of the linux world about once a year still. And obviously keep using it on the servers.

Best of luck to everyone using it for desktop. I totally get why you do it, but it's just not for me right now.

Have you considered using a tiling window manager? I've been using bspwm for years and it just uses X. I don't really miss anything about floating window managers, and since switching everything feels more stable and portable

I'm using a tiling window manager on Mac

Which one?

Perhaps Amethyst[1] or yabai[2]. You can also write your own with Hammerspoon[3].
