Same here. Sure, KDE and Gnome may have great Wayland support by now, but what about other DEs? The situation in XFCE seems to be pretty grim:
It is not clear yet which Xfce release will target a complete Xfce Wayland transition (or if such a transition will happen at all).
MATE seems to have piecemeal support. No idea what the status of LXDE/LXQT are. And there are plenty of other window managers that don’t have the manpower to support wayland either.
The deprecation of X is going to leave a lot of dead software in its wake.
Yeah, people like to pretend KDE and Gnome are the only options. I dislike both. Cinnamon is the (unintended?) spiritual successor to the last Gnome I liked, which is Gnome 2.
It’s very much intended. Cinnamon was forked from GNOME 3 when it was released. It was intended to preserve the old GNOME 2 layout, but ended up evolving into the Cinnamon we know today.
Easy, because Cinnamon is on X. When Cinnamon is on Wayland, so will I (and when I don’t have an Nvidia GPU, I guess).
