Going back to the most famous code comment in Unix history You are not expected to understand this.

This is what I was thinking when it said the police have to prioritize other shit.

Try it. Easy enough to have both options on your machine. I poke into Wayland about every 6-12 months, then go back to X11 because I just can’t be fucked with fixing shit that works under X11 and is broken with Wayland. Plenty of people try Wayland and don’t have any issues. Eventually just about everyone will be on Wayland, if that makes a difference to you. I’ll check it again in maybe near the end of 2023.

That sounds like a much more mature human than just about all the bosses I’ve worked under.

When I was a kid (late teens) I read a Henry Miller book that had a line something like,“Do exactly what they tell you to do, and let them live to regret it.” Just made me appreciate malicious compliance for most of my working life.
