   Oh, and I feel I should say this: it's not like I like X11. I even always disliked it really was a monoculture for "Linux Workstation" usage.
   
   I'm getting exasperated at how I'm seeing there's no way to reliably just... use... my Linux workstation computer. Which is something I've been able to rely on for decades.
   
   And I don't see any viable alternatives within Linux, or outside Linux, at this point in time.

     With X11 having been de-facto killed by people saying Wayland is ready and just works, now things are getting in disrepair. My previously working workflow of 20+ years already has been broken.
     
     Meanwhile, every Wayland compositor I try either lacks basic features, sucks and/or is brittle and crashes.
     
     Why is using desktop Linux in 2024 a worse experience than in 2003, 2004, 2005, ... 2019?
     
     What am I even supposed to do? Just stop using graphical apps?
     
     Do I have to add another humongous project to my teetering pile of yaks?
