What this means is that there were 30+ years of corner cases handled in the code. Those won't be handled in Wayland for a long time, if ever. When Wayland has its own stack of such corner cases, it will then be bloated and unmaintainable, and the cycle will start again with a new piece of software. If X runs on a single user system with no internet facing services, security exploits are probably not a breaker. It will be the change in the abis and apis as the underlying system evolves that will break it. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
