Now I am no X11 cultist or Wayland sectary.
But I always wondered when this fight comes up, if you're so mad at how Wayland is managed why don't you make a joint effort to fork it?
Like, as far as I know our current X11 is a fork from a previous shenanigans of the 80s/90s.
Has anyone not tried to do the same with Wayland?
Is Wayland hatred so religious to some people they rather keep using X11 than improving over Wayland?
