That's quite the claim; maybe you operate in different circles than I do, but most power users I know still avoid Wayland like the plague. X doesn't have support most of the modern fancy features, yes. But on older hardware, which people with less money usually have, X works.

People with less money don't have old computers. They have Chromebooks, which use Wayland.

X still works great for me. I figure I'll give Wayland a try after another decade or so.
