Wayland... If it doesn't work with your NVIDIA graphics card, then get a better GPU. And if it's not compatible with your accessibility software, then get better eyes!

Here we have the most well-thought-out decision since Canonical's crusade to nuke 32-bit libraries from the archives right as Linux gaming was starting to gain momentum, reasoning that if Apple did it, then they had to do it too.

It's pretty amazing and remarkable the progress Linux has made as a usable desktop platform when people high up in the ranks are actively working to sabotage it.
