good news for you then, since there is a full distribution of xorg in the contrib repo and it's not expected to go away anytime soon (if ever)
Good to know. Their package search from the main site must not include contrib,though, as it only turns up wayland related packages, and nothing x11/xorg.
there is a combobox to pick the repository: https://pkgs.chimera-linux.org/packages?name=xserver-xorg*&r...

It seems like all the big name companies are 100% for Wayland, breaking compatibility with them seems like a hassle, regardless of how good Wayland itself is.

They don't seem to be afraid of breaking compatibility -- witness deb/rpm, coreutils, glibc, etc...
I feel like they made a lot of good decisions in being simple enough without too simple, and backwards compatible enough without too much legacy... but imho wayland doesn't fit in that same space for me (at least not yet.)
