Everyone should. It's wasted energy, bad for components and outright lazy in some cases.

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.
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.

I've always quite liked how Polybar / Waybar look with WMs but I've never been bothered to fiddle with all the config files that come with that. I want to spend more time using my desktop than making it look nice. So I initially tried GNOME but found the panel CSS too confusing. I tried KDE Plasma after hearing that panels were quite powerful if you use them right, and I believe I did. The colour scheme was originally going to be Gruvbox but the global theme I used gave off a more everforest vibe so I embraced it, I'm quite glad I did because I think this looks amazing...
~~I know I know, I just like how cursive fonts look in terminals, I use them for programming too. This one is Victor Mono~~
Only you know why...
