   My sentiment exactly.

   In THEORY Wayland has potential ... but it has
   languished, inched along, always has some hidden
   gotchas.

   The over-caffeinated volunteer hacks may have
   made X11 a bit clunky, but it WORKS and has
   huge documentation.

   Maybe an AI can eventually clean up both and
   make a best-of system that's not clunky ???
