minus-squareFour_lights77@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up9·2 years agoAs a newly converted Fedora user, has this x11 been an issue or is this simply an aesthetics/preference thing?
minus-squareCertainity45@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up25arrow-down1·2 years agoNo. X11 has been around since 1980’s and it’s basicly a puzzle of chewing gums glued together. It’s not been in development for years now. Wayland is much less code but the end result is still much better. Wayland is the future. In case you didn’t know, they’re display compositors. Backends of the graphics.
