The death watch for the X Window System has probably started
I would use Wayland, but the most actively-developed tiling window manager, sway, doesn't work with the NVIDIA graphics card I own.And come to think of it, isn't that a really weird problem to have? On X, the compositor (responsible for actually drawing all the windows on the screen) and the window manager (responsible for deciding how to arrange the windows and what their title bars/borders should look like) can be separate components, so I use i3 to arrange my windows and compton to draw them without tearing.On Wayland, my impression is that the compositor and the window manager have to be built into the same program, so you run into silly situations where you can run GNOME on your graphics card but you can't run a basic tiling window manager. This also makes it a lot harder to create a new window manager, since you also have to write a compositor and test it on every graphics card.That last issue could be solved with a reusable library that provided basic compositor functionality for window managers. Except every member of the Wayland community has independently had that idea and written their own, each with a different, incompatible interface and support for different graphics cards. So either we need a meta-library that abstracts away all the different libraries, or we need a standard compositor interface like X had.
