    No. X11 has been around since 1980's and it's basicly a puzzle of chewing gums glued together. It's not been in development for years now.

    Wayland is much less code but the end result is still much better. Wayland is the future.

    In case you didn't know, they're display compositors. Backends of the graphics.

        This has not been my experience at all. A few crashes in a year or so of use. Apparently experiences vary.

        My current KDE Wayland exp is also no great, but I have an older Nvidia GPU too.

          I'm unfortunately stuck on Nvidia until I can find a swap for my 2070s

        Can you explain what "breaks" you are experiencing?

        I'm running Fedora/KDE/Wayland on two machines here, and the only oddity I get regularly is on my system with one monitor in landscape and one in portrait. Sometimes half of the landscape screen seems to be funky until I turn the portrait monitor off and on again (almost like it is trying to put the two displays on one for some reason). Most everything else has been flawless.
