Sadly, this is going to be preaching to the choir. Wayland has its faults but if it truly was an inferior approach compared to X then someone would’ve forked X or spawned a totally new project. Turns out it takes time, money, and developer power that simply isn’t coming into X or any competing standard. Wayland is “good enough” to be the next standard and that’s how it’ll be for the foreseeable future.

If a BSD fan really thinks X is pivotal to BSD’s future, then maybe BSD will need to consider forking it and fixing it, but I’m sure the real solution will just be supporting Wayland on BSD too.
