> Yeah, please repeat the same bullshit for the umpteenth time.

I'm currently streaming X11 over my LAN which is something I can't do with Wayland. Give me a fucking solution instead of telling me I'm doing it wrong.

Yes, I'm tired of seeing all this bullshit, too. I'll switch immediately when Wayland gives me want I need to make me productive. Until then, I'm absolutely sick of this cocky attitude.

Yes you can lol. I'm literally using WayVNC right now to work on my laptop from my desktop seamlessly

WayVNC is in not a real replacement for X11 application forwarding.

Waypipe is the solution.

x2go/freenx, must better than plain X11.

You can. It'll use XWayland. I'm assuming you are speaking about ssh -X or its friends. It's transparent for you, you don't have to configure anything for this. Yes, it's still using X for this use case, but I don't see how it is a Wayland issue. The protocol that talks with your hardware / local graphic stack does not have to be the same as the one talking on the network. The problematic thing is that it has X11 limitations like not changing the DPI of the window when moving it across screens, but that's also true on a X11 session.

I'm still using X11 but I'm close to switching to Wayland, KDE on Wayland has improved a lot recently.

Eh, that has been possible for a while.
