Linux

Oh, about 4 or 6 months ago? I had problems with font scaling and multiple monitors with different resolutions, and correct DPI handling. I hear that's all been fixed, but I haven't tried it yet.

I have no reason to try it. X works just fine for me. I have herbstluftwm set up the way I like it, and there's only one Wayland window manager that looks at all similar in functionality to herbstluftwm (niri?). picom gives me all of the functionlity I find useful or attractive: dimming non-focused windows and light tranparency on terminals. Switching would be a lot of work, finding a bar to work like polybar, getting the WM set up, finding a good terminal to replace rio. And why? For what? X works well and reliably, and I don't have any edge cases like I did in Wayland, so should I make the time and effort to switch? There's no compelling reason, at the moment. There's nothing I want, or need, from Wayland.

I'll probably log in to Niri to play with it one of these days when I have nothing better to do. I'm curious if it does anything herbstluftwm doesn't.

Eventually, I may be forced to switch, but at the moment I just see a bunch of unnecessary effort on my part to just get back to what I have under X now. Seriously, what's the compelling reason for me to use Wayland?
