I don't know what to think.

I've been using X (on Linux) since the 1990s. Then Xorg and presumably now Wayland.

Back in the 90s, my Linux boxen were stable as hell. Unless the power went out, nothing ever knocked them over. (No, I tell a lie, I had one machine with bad RAM that would crash randomly.) I had one machine have an uptime of over a year. Now, I'm lucky if my Linux desktop lasts a week without it locking up or falling over, usually because my browser (running as an unprivileged user) manages to choke out the desktop environment and causes it to die.
