Wayland is necessary because Wayland will be necessary in the near future, if it was next year then that would put a lot of people who don't know about X.Org and Wayland through a major shift which could rock-the-boat a bit too much and cause them to go back to Windows for the "just works" experience.

I think we need rock-solid Wayland before we can expect TYLD. So I'm feeling 2026 minimum, then add a couple for some padding; so 2028 realistically. Think of how far we've come in 5 years, then imagine 5 years more.
If Nvidia's consumer GPU market share dropped a bit too, that'd help.
Hold shift when you click restart in windows, you can access the firmware through windows recovery.
Use EndeavourOS if you want easy Arch, Manjaro is kinda bad.
But really if you want an easy system, go with Mint or Fedora. Arch isn't designed for ease nor first-timers.
It's funny though innit?
Isn't the logo just a unicode character? The X in X.Org is 2 seperate pieces that bend away from each other at the center.
I wouldn't call it pointless, having another layer is quite handy. But I would like to see it adopt a more ambiguous name, sure Super or Meta is here but they haven't caught on due to their logo still being plastered on the key.
iPhone is the same thing, but you don't have a choice.
