Since a package has to be at least 3 years out of date to be included in debian stable, and wayland is only 4 years old, it will take another 10 years. And it is probably a good thing, i tried switching to wayland but it didnt make much sense. The only tiling compositor that worked for me was sway, but every other app i tried to use worked thru xwayland. no native firefox, no redshift. it did fix tearing in video playback though.

Maybe if i used gnome it would have made more sense.

Most desktop users are better off with unstable.

I'd say testing is a better choice for desktop users, and pinning some unstable packages only if necessary.

Please be aware that security fixes for Debian testing may lag behind [1].

Fair comment!

Some desktop users prefer stable despite its older package set. I use backports on stable for a few things.

HNers will probably prefer Sid as the packages will be newer. debootstrap springs to mind for newer programming language versions &c (I have never used a debootstrap install for that purpose however).
