@wolf480pl @mjdxp @nytpu somewhat curious how making an X server is feasible while a Wayland compositor is not. there is exactly one X server in common use and like 4 wayland compositors :blobcatgoogly:

  @mjdxp @nytpu it's easier for former Xorg developers

  @nytpu ah yes, wayland is so much easier for developers!*
  
  *as long as you're not trying to write a compositor on your own (which was completely realistic with xorg but no longer is for wayland), trying to port over large projects like desktop environments, using an operating system that doesn't have wayland like openBSD, making an app that uses keybindings, etc etc
