Xfce’s stance is that they want to offer Wayland support soon but will remain X11-compatible for the foreseeable future. Going by what their wiki says about it, work seems to be progressing fairly well.
I know. I’m pointing to the thing that this article states - that GTK will drop X11. Won’t make things easy for them if they want to keep X11 compatibility.
Fair point. It remains to be seen how well this will work out for them. But given that doesn’t seem to be even a vague launch date I’d say there’s going to be plenty of time for a transitional phase where they can get their bugs sorted out – and the underlying operating systems can get Wayland running if they haven’t already.
