[Image description: Panel 1: Young man confidently walking, his vest bears the Wayland logo. Behind him is a grunt with the Gnome logo on his face holding a katana. The young man says: “It’s high time you retire, old man!” Panel 2: An old man with a long beard and the Xorg logo on his chest is sitting on a throne and petting a rat, the XFCE mascot. He says: “It’s still a hundred years too early for you to defeat me!” ]

    I agree with what you’re saying, but you’re shifting the goalpost.

    Everyone is cheering Wayland on, no one believes it’ll succeed

    That parent comment (and other comments like it in these threads) are what I take issue with. You can make the exact same argument why people should stick with Windows and not bother with Linux.

      But… You didn’t take issue with that. You ridicularized a completely different statement, one that was valid even. You pulled a reverse strawman on yourself. If you’d made a counterpoint to original post, I’d have agreed with you.
