As soon as Wayland gets usable and adopted by major DEs (GNOME, KDE), Xorg will enter maintenance mode and will survive only in XWayland form. DEs/WMs without the man power to switch are going to die.

Installed it today, rebooted and no taskbar on top. Fuck this shit
KDE > All IMHO

Lel. But yeah, it has less than 10 devs which is a shame. It's literally the only good DE other than KDE. Just needs a bit more polishing.

MATE is just as lightweight but has more functionality.

X nowadays is just a framebuffer/input handler (with several bugs and limitations), no modern DE uses any of its APIs anymore. Nobody's gotta waste time working around X forever, but it won't die overnight
