Yes Apple, you lost!!! Get your act together and fight for something that is meaningful!! 🤷🏻♂️

No, as far as I know, it's independent: it's just the GNOME session not needing to install X11 libraries anymore but from what I've read, xWayland programs will still run normally!

It makes sense that fedora workstation will drop x11, Gnome is probably the most stable desktop environment out there. I wonder though, will the missing x11 libraries impact XWayland or is it completely independent from x11?
