I use LXDE and find also that KDE and Gnome stuff is fine.

I'm referring to the window manager, not the apps.

systemd is a solid religious issue.  That's as opposed to a
gaseous religious issue, like vi vs. emacs; if vi users had
to use emacs, or vice versa, they'd survive with little
long-term grumbling (unless you take into account the muscle
memory issue).  There are serious reasons to embrace
systemd; there are serious resons to avoid it.  I'm sure
you're aware of the arguments on both sides, so you're
probably wondering what pushed me over the edge.

You've seen Poettering on youtube.  He wins by talking fast.
He rushes in.  That may not seem rational, but he doesn't
pass the sniff test.  I keep wondering when he's going to
invade Poland.  (Yes, I went there.)

I don't like the other things that are gradually happening
to Linux, either.  Is it true that X will no longer run as
root?  A lot of my personal legacy stuff relies on that.

I have no commercial horses in this race.  I"m retired and
want to putter around on my machines at home.  I figure I
have only 30 years left, and I don't want to spend time
moving things around every time Linux changes in some major
way.  Linux is a neat way to get stuff done.  But FreeBSD is
a hobbyist's paradise.  Although I use elvis myself, I like
that FreeBSD offers a vi that's bug for bug compatible with
a classic release of it.

It is probably easy to mock this approach.  But I like to
work (metaphorically speaking) on an old Harley where
everything could be adjusted with a wrench and a
screwdriver, without all this modern frippery.

My lawn.  I don't suffer treaders gladly.

Not getting your point.
I've seen die hard vi fans happy using Emacs with Viper or Evil.

Personal distaste for the author?

Seriously?

Never saw  Poettering speak.
I've had some contact with other Open Source heroes.
I'm not surprised that some of them are imperfect.

Against any change?
Not a good plan.
I've tried (I ran a Mandrake release, long after it's prime).
It leads to ultimate failure.

That really hasn't been true for Linux for more than a decade. Numerous
configuration files were appropriated by the distro with comments
advising the superuser to keep out.

Systemd just finished the job.

Many thanks to those who gave me new perspectives on
systemd.  This has become an occasion to think on other
Linux things.

I look on the approach of Wayland.  One of the touted
advantages of Wayland over X is that it doesn't have that
clunky window tree (where everything, down to the last
window frame and button, is/has a window).  But I've written
code, used regularly, that wants to see that window tree and
traipse through it.  If Wayland isn't using that window
tree, are the fine producers of Wayland going to go to the
trouble of putting that bug/feature into the X compatibility
layer?  If not, this makes my journey from Linux to FreeBSD
not only a migration to the promised land, but also a forced
flight from Egypt.

I'm in the pro-systemd, anti-wayland camp.

I've watched that video by one of the Wayland developers and
along with the "it's old", "it's too big" boiler plate, the
only thing I got for a Wayland advantage is "no tearing".

I wonder who is experiencing this "tearing" issue.
I haven't seen anything on the screen that doesn't belong there
since I started using SunOs4.

(Except for color map flashing for Sun video card 8 bit color,)

For me, the Wayland deal breaker is lack of remote single window
support.

I won't need that after I retire some time this spring.
So, maybe I won't care, but I think it's a mistake to
drop something so useful in a commercial environment.

Oof.  You mean no /etc/X0.hosts?  No setting DISPLAY to the

I'm approaching these questions purely as a (now retired)
hobbyist.  I find it relaxing to do exactly what I want with
my systems (wrench and screwdriver and all), at my own pace,
with my own priorities.  I do other things, but this takes

My best friend from work, on the other hand, spends his time
gardening, hiking in the Sierra with his wife, and cooking.
No computer use except as an ordinary consumer.

They seem to think remote desktop is an adequate substitute.

Um, yeah, so what if you don't *use* a "desktop"?  How does that work
with twm? Or how, then, do you get the bare bones simplicity of twm at
all?

Don't want a "desktop", don't want all the gigs of stuff required to
support one, don't care about drag & drop or all the other chrome (not
Chrome :-).  Where is Wayland going with plain and simple?

Wayland supports X so I guess all X applications will work remotely as
they do usually.
Wayland is not to replace X or obsolete it in any way. Wayland is for
desktop users which want better desktop experience.
Of course it is not yet ready, and I can't use it as there is no proper
free driver support for my graphic card yet, but then again, why not
try it when things get ready. All in all all X applications will work
as usual. I guess that some time would need for people to ship Wayland
bundled apps as well.

Nope.  From the FAQ:

  Wayland provides a solution here, in that it can host several X servers
  as they push their root window to Wayland as surfaces.

Wayland hosts X Servers, not X applications.

Wow, great marketing speak.
What exactly is a "better desktop experience"?
My desktop experience is perfect right now.
(I have no complaints.)
I'm doubtful about this "better experience" thing.

X applications will not work as usual and remote X applications will
only work at the remote desktop level.  Wayland will show a whole
remote screen, but not just the window from an application.

Doesn't sound promising.  I don't do remote X very often but I like
the oresent setup on localhost.  But then I'm so old that by the time
Wayland goes mainstream I may not care any more. :-o

Already I'm having to jigger and hack in Slackware 14 to keep X
looking the way I like it.  Recent versions of xterm and firefox
apparently have built icon graphics so twm renders these huge, real
estate-sucking icons instead of the simple little ones that twm would
otherwise create. (If there's an easy way to defeat that short of
modifying the source, I didn't get the memo.)

	I sincerely doubt that Wayland going mainstream will mean the end
of X. I expect that even in distros shipping with Wayland and without X it
will be possible to build and install an X server and use it instead of
Wayland if you so desire (I likely will).

	The trouble will come when there are useful applications that only
run under Wayland. Still a VM should be able to confine Wayland to a window
served by X if so desired. Likely though most useful applications will sit
on top of toolkits that happily run on X, Wayland, Windows and MacOS.

	Choice is good. no reason why Wayland and X shouldn't coexist.

Don't know about twm, but Fvwm has options that override the

I use xfce and I have just 4 icons on the *bottom right* side of the screen -

Top to bottom:
Apps  (a folder where all my main apps live)
File System 
Home
Trash

Rest of the screen below the toolbar is blank with a big picture of Bender...
