This is a truly WTF moment about messed up responses to X11 session removal in Gnome.

2 weeks ago I published a blogpost about the upcoming plans of GNOME 49 and the eventual removal of the X11 session. Since then, instead of looking at feedback, bugs and issues related to the topic, we all collectively had to deal with the following, and I am not exaggerating one bit:

Fascists and Nazis
Wild Conspiracy Theories that make Qanon jealous
“Concerned” Trolling about the Accessibility of the Wayland session
A culture war where Wayland is Gay, and X11 is the glorious past they stole from you

In my wildest dreams I could have never made this shit up. You all need mandatory supervised access to the Internet from now on

Still waiting for an decent replacement for xdotool which is keeping me on X compatible for now. Which yes I know doesnt vibe with wayland's security model but muh automation. 🙆

Outside HDR support, I still don't know what's the real benefit. I remember them breaking copying and pasting for a while, screen recording and some other shenanigans for "security" but recently things seem to work fine on it
