Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

As a guy with a 4K display, I can honestly say Wayland is the only path forward, and has been that way for a while now. X is venerable and deserves it's respect, but it's day is now past too... It is time to move on, and focus support looking forwards.
