No, it doesn’t sound like they’ll be dropping X11 support any time soon. At least, not before the 2.0 release. It is nevertheless one of those worrisome things.

They’re dropping a hard dependency on X11 and instead using a library that interfaces with X11 or Wayland for it.

It still runs fine on X11.

There is a comment in the forum discussion by the author of the Linux section that X11 support is not going away, simply because SDL supports it.
