Just giggled as my last meme mentioned trouble with displays and appropriately, a large chunk of the replies were “well MY displays work just fine!” (And charmingly, many were thoughts of things to check, other distros etc. It’s a very kind community, though that may also be the fediverse.)

    These days you can just go for wayland, anything that still requires x11 will just launch under xWayland being normal x11 session within your wayland session (like steam, for example)

      Yes. That describe my experience well!

      I’m vaguely aware of the big transition, but I’ve felt like Mr Magoo walking blind through it all and luckily missing any headaches.

      I did have one intermittent issue that I blamed on Wayland in my heart. But I recently discovered it was actually an issue with my hardware.
