From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Future yes.
Present no.
What makes you say that? I've been using Wayland for a few years now with 0 issues.
The only thing I miss and switch to Xorg for is screen sharing in video calls.
screenshare works on Wayland though?
Screen sharing works fine under GNOME, haven't tried with another DE/WM.
Not in Gnome on Wayland it doesn't. I had to knock it back down to Xorg.
I meant on Wayland. It works on my computer^^TM under Firefox, Chromium and electron apps.
Yes. Screensharing on Gnome on Wayland on Debian on Linux on GNU on AMD on my laptop's motherboard on my desk did not work for me.
