As much as I want to support the idea of a well supported, modernised graphical protocol system, wayland simply isn’t ready yet. There’s so much shit that simply doesn’t work, and they’re all made up of little niche cases that will take substantially longer than a few months to resolve, and I still haven’t seen anything that suggests Wayland has a practical equivalent to xorg.conf.
Is Alma Linux rolling their own version of Plasma with x11? Or are they just sticking with an older version of Plasma? Is anyone else planning on hacking x11 back into the DE?
I really hope the X11 session stays maintained.
Otherwise, KDE will finally have a reason to get get its MATE/Cinnamon equivalent
What should the fork be called? Surely someone can do better than “Plaxma DE”.
This already exists, sort of. It’s called Trinity Desktop. However, it’s a fork of an older version of KDE, specifically 3.5.
