@poleguy @edolnx ++ this is my approach also. I'm feeling forced to Wayland because major projects are deleting their X11 code (gnome, kde, gtk, etc) so "staying on X11" is no longer an option.

It's a hostile environment that treats the user as a threat... but it is *my* computer, and if I need to torture the silicon in order to make it do what I want, so be it. ;)
