Fedora 43 Change Proposal Filed For Removing GNOME X11 Packages: 
Wayland-Only GNOME
Written by Michael Larabel in Fedora on 23 April 2025 at 06:15 AM EDT. 
19 Comments
FEDORAFollowing a lot of work in this direction toward the end goal of 
removing GNOME X11 support, this milestone may finally be acheived for 
the Fedora 43 cycle due out by the end of the year. A change proposal 
has been filed for removing the GNOME X11 packages in the repository and 
in turn making the GNOME desktop Wayland-only on Fedora Linux.

Fedora developer Neal Gompa has filed the change proposal for 
Wayland-only GNOME with Fedora 43. All users of the GNOME X11 session 
would need to migrate to the GNOME Wayland session with the GNOME X11 
packages to be removed, assuming all comes to pass.

The change proposal still needs to be voted on by the Fedora Engineering 
and Steering Committee (FESCo) but this has been a long-sought goal for 
the developers involved. Considering the maturity of the GNOME Wayland 
session at this point, features like HDR only being supported under 
Wayland, and the lack of X11/X.Org Server maintenance, seeing this come 
to fruition for Fedora 43 wouldn't be the least bit surprising.
Fedora with GNOME


The change proposal notes:
"As part of the upstream effort to remove X11 support from GNOME, Fedora 
will no longer include the GNOME X11 packages. The GNOME X11 session 
receives virtually no testing and little to no development.

There has been active effort upstream for several years now to close out 
the remaining user experience blockers to dropping the X11 session code, 
and that work completed with GNOME 48. The upstream target is to drop it 
for GNOME 50, with it being disabled by default at compile time for 
GNOME 49.

This Change effectively implements the GNOME 50 target in GNOME 49 
because there is no one to support any issues with GNOME X11 upstream. 
The X11 session is already quite buggy, with serious unfixed issues in 
Mutter (like rhbz#2179566 and glgo#GNOME/mutter#3868) and recently 
Phoronix could not benchmark GNOME X11 vs Wayland because "GNOME on X11 
wasn't even working due to bugs".

Dropping the GNOME X11 session now allows us to reconcile with reality 
that the GNOME X11 session is simply not supported anymore (either by us 
or upstream GNOME)."

By GNOME 50 next year upstream could completely remove its X11 session 
support.

Fortunately I can choose something NOT Fedora. If they go through with this, 
adios Fedora on the laptop I never use.

Non-problem solved.

Yep. The only problem I have with Fedora is that it constantly breaks 
the NVIDIA driver. Otherwise, I'm in favour of them continuously 
improving the experience by phasing out older software. In the end, if 
people don't like the change away from X11, they can choose a variety of 
distributions that insist on keeping it. That's what great about Linux 
and its almost unlimited amount of choices.

Yep. I'm not that crazy about IBM/Red Hat anyhow. CentOS was my first "I'm 
finally moving away from Windows" distribution. But Red Hat swallowed them 
up (well after I quit using CentOS, I should add).

I wouldn't say Red Hat swallowed them up but they did manage to add 
confusion worthy of Redmond. CentOS was downstream of RHEL. CentOS Stream 
is now downstream of Fedora and upstream of RHEL with a three year major 
release cycle. Rocky Linux replaced CentOS as the downstream version of 
RHEL.

At one time I used Red Hat Linux (prior to CentOS or RHEL). After the 
notorious gcc  2.96 release I switched to SuSE. 

https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-2.96.html

They also had a Python version that broke some of our existing scripts. 
The original Red Hat was more like today's Fedora -- close to the cutting 
edge and probably not something you would want to use on a production 
machine.

By "swallowed up" I mean Red Hat became the owner of CentOS. The trademarks 
were transferred to Red Hat and Red Hat employs CentOS' main developers. 
What was CentOS ended in 2021. Now they call it CentOS Stream and, as you 
say, it's now a distribution that fits between Fedora and Red Hat. Kind of a 
"beta" of Red Hat. When I used CentOS it was basically a Red Hat clone with 
branding removed.

I know about Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux (and Oracle Linux) but Red Hat has 
made it harder to clone Red Hat now. (Although I think Rocky and AlmaLinux 
have figured out how to get around this.)

It looks to me like Red Hat wants to try to control the future direction of 
Linux. Thankfully there are lots of other alternatives.

I haven't used Fedora in years but I agree with the other person (vallor?) that
after install it seemed like there was a lot of work to install what I would
consider basics and if I remember correctly, I needed to go outside the standard
repos to install these.
Also I never liked the default Fedora layout. To me it look rough and cheap looking.
Yes I know it of course can be changed but it was one more less than polished item.

I went LinuxMint, switched to MXLinux for a while and am now back with LinuMint and
am very happy with it.
With Linux there truly is something for everyone willing to poke around.

Linux Mint does a wonderful job on my work computer. I can't complain 
other than I would have liked to have the touchpad gestures that are 
enabled by default in Wayland. Heck, through Linux Mint, the battery the 
cheapo laptop I got, which had 89% health, is suddenly up to 94 or 95%. 
It's a Linux miracle.

Seriously though, I doubt that number is correct considering how it has 
over 600 cycles. Still, I used it for three hours today and it only lost 
25% battery life during that time.

I think the install came with most of what I would consider basics. There 
are things I install on every machine, Linux or Windows, like VS Code, a 
Arduino IDE, Gvim, Brave. or Postgres but I wouldn't call them basics.

I run the KDE spin.

This was one of the reasons I left Fedora and went to Debian.  I had
been tired of the frequent release cycle, and some of the politics, but
the fact they would be earlier than other distros in deprecating X11
pushed me to Debian.  Nothing against Wayland per-se, but it breaks some
X applications, and my Window Manager.

The "developers" today are terrible, constantly breaking everything all
the time.  How they feel it is acceptable to constantly break peoples
workflows is beyond me.  Sheer arrogance.

I went to Ubuntu specifically because I wanted Wayland (for touchpad 
gestures) and a proper support for the NVIDIA proprietary driver. The 
only issues I have are that the audio becomes distorted when using 
speakers and an external _if_ I play a game in Heroic Games Launcher 
(but there's no reason to believe it's Wayland anyway since the problem 
does not occur if I don't use an external monitor or speakers) and I 
can't add a bookmark directly into the sidebar in Brave (it could be a 
Brave issue but it doesn't occur in the same version of Brave used on 
Cinnamon and X11). Other than that, it's better in every way.

Not for me it isn't. But that's the good thing about Linux. Lots of choices.

I don't have a problem with change, but don't break users workflows.
Don't break userspace.

I understand the problems with X11, and supporting legacy, but you can't
just throw out decades of work and break it because its hard.

There is a reason that C and C++ are still around, despite their issues.
There is a lot of work behind them, a lot of infrastructure, knowledge,
methods, code.  There is a cost, a big cost in rebuilding everything
(re-write it in rust!), to just go back to where you were.  q Windows
suffered because of its backwards compatibility, but it was also its
strength.  The ONE thing I think Windows did better than Linux when I
shifted, was being able to run older and newer binaries.  It meant
cruft, it meant extra work, but programs didn't break, and that was the
point of the OS.

Users, not developers, end up deciding how the ecosystem work.

Somebody has to come along and offer to do the work. If nobody does, then 
yes, the existing developers are quite justified in saying “that’s not 
worth it, let’s just drop it”.

But they ARE doing work.  They're creating new stuff that lack some
degree of compatibility with the old.  This is the problem, devs work on
what the want to work on, not what people need.

In no one was willing to work on free software, that would make sense,
but people are working on reinventing the wheel again and again.  We
also had Mir.  TWO projects. Duplication.

They’re doing it on their own time and with their own resources, after 
all. What right do you have to tell them what to do?

It's not a matter of what they *should* do, it's a matter of choosing 
something different that better fits your needs. If Fedora jettisons X11, 
I'll jettison Fedora. It's a matter of choice. With Linux you *can* choose 
what you prefer (unlike Windows or Macs).

The KDE spin has been Wayland for some time. xclock works so maybe they 
still have XWayland. Ubuntu is also Wayland.  For that matter 'loginctl 
show-session 1' on the RPi running Raspberry Pi OS also shows wayland for 
the type. 

The only possible problem I've seen was QGIS popped a warning that some 
dialogs might not render correctly but that's been fixed for a long time.

It's not that Fedora has chosen to default to Wayland that bothers me, it's 
that, if the vote goes "their" way (whoever "they" are), they'll take away 
the choice to use X11 when using Fedora. That's fine. I don't have to use 
with Fedora (and I won't if they do this). As for Wayland, I've run into a 
few issues with it. I could probably work around them but I don't see why 
that should be necessary. I'm definitely not going to move to KDE for a 
better Wayland experience.

It's not that big of a deal, I just like choice and making my own decisions. 
So far Linux Mint, Debian and even Ubuntu still either default to or let me 
choose X11. (So far, even Fedora let's me choose X11, which I do.)

Kind of like Ubuntu trying to force Unity on everyone because "they knew 
better." Or Gnome making huge changes in Gnome 3 because they knew better 
than the user what the *should* want. That's basically why Linux Mint took 
off. Mate and Cinnamon were what a LOT of users wanted, not Gnome 3 or 
Unity.
