What’s the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven’t found anything useful on the internet, so I’m asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.

    Here is the x11libre dev not understanding what the ^ operand does in C. Would you trust running this person’s code as a display server?

    Sure. No one expects anyone to know everything from the start, and people improve with time. But this was metux’s understanding of C when he forked off xorg thinking he could do better than freedesktop.
