@carlschwan @davidrevoy Wayland was already the default in fedora for many years. I got told that this is to push Linux forward and compel developers to port things to Wayland and fedora's decision would magically fix all these issues in time. There was also a blogpost from kde dev ( it felt sarcastically mocking) the choice of fedora by people like us and that we could choose from a bazillion of other distros. I was told that fedora devs care about artists. So I hope it was worth it. After all we are a small subset of users. What difference do we make.
@raghukamath @carlschwan @davidrevoy I heard from an acquaintance who works for RedHat that the desktop team basically exists so they can keep the Hollywood content creation crowd -- the people using Houdini and so on.
But I guess the memo hasn't arrived; also, most VFX studios were still using KDE3 in 2019, the last time we talked.
