+ <p>A quick view of the status of a pure-wayland (as in not even <code>libX11.so</code>) setup. Most of the time stuff works okay in XWayland, but X.Org is on life-support so I don't think it's going to stay, and in embedded devices it's often not present (for example in SailfishOS) as X11 makes no sense outside of regular keyboard+mouse setups, plus it is a compatibility layer to a protocol with known issues (some of them being security) in it's design.</p>
