I think we need rock-solid Wayland before we can expect TYLD. So I'm feeling 2026 minimum, then add a couple for some padding; so 2028 realistically. Think of how far we've come in 5 years, then imagine 5 years more.
If Nvidia's consumer GPU market share dropped a bit too, that'd help.
Why do you think that Wayland is necessary for adoption? In my opinion it is the missing hardware drivers, compatability issues and "getting your hands dirty" while constantly tweaking stuff. Yeah it got better over the years, but most people want things to just work.
Wayland is necessary because Wayland will be necessary in the near future, if it was next year then that would put a lot of people who don't know about X.Org and Wayland through a major shift which could rock-the-boat a bit too much and cause them to go back to Windows for the "just works" experience.
Look, I just finally tried steam on Linux and the game booted up. I am absolutely amazed as I thought I'd never see that day. Also windows is somehow just getting worse and worse. It's like they just want an entire ad platform. They lost me at this point. I have 0 need for any ms products again and that's a great feeling.
but WHY is it necessary??
