Do you people ever think that Wayland is being sorta shoved down our throats ?

PipeWire wasn't

[–] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Waylands initial release was 2008... I don't think so at all...

Pipewire was released in like 2017 but the transition was a lot smoother than Wayland so that's probably way it feels like that.

Perhaps

I’ve been waiting for Wayland to take over since like 2011 or some ancient time like that. I’m just glad it’s finally got some traction tbh.

Maybe we should wait until Wayland is more mature (Like having proper accesibility) ?

[–] darksiderbun@lemmy.ca 2 points 18 hours ago

I am unaware of the current goings on, but tentatively yeah. Don’t force switch everyone to Wayland without taking care of accessibility features first.

Yes and no

This only applies to the gnome for now.

But it's happening in KDE as well
