IBM Red Hat is Still Developing X Server
Wayland is the future, according to IBM. Well, fine, they said so, but are they fully committed to it? What was done to "kill X" other than social engineering by IBM staff?
Judging by ongoing releases tied to X, it's not clear what this commitment really looks like, maybe wishful thinking more than anything else.
There's meanwhile some very good discussion about fallout from Rust inside Linux as another key person calls it quits.
Just because they shout at us that something is "over" or "dead" (despite the source code being free) and something else is "inevitable" or "the future" doesn't magically make it so.
My laptop is approaching 750 days of uptime and it uses X. It's stable because of mature components, not in spite of them. █
