Wayland, PipeWire, and NetworkManager. Three huge changes in one release. Congrats, Pi software team!

Those are upstream Debian changes. Well, not setting Wayland default or QAing it for rpi but still, most it's a Debian's team job

If you read the article, they developed their own(?) lxpanel clone for Wayland apparently, so there's some custom work there. Of course I wonder why that wasn't done upstream (or maybe it was, and it's just not spelled out).

Will be interesting if configuring a Bluetooth sink using PipeWire is less of a hassle than Alsa, which was really unpleasant. Having all the codecs on a Pi Zero is nice!

I've had a much more pleasant experience with Bluetooth under Pipewire, though fixing issues such as incorrect Bluetooth profiles requires understanding still-pretty-young projects like WirePlumber.
