What’s the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven’t found anything useful on the internet, so I’m asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.

    By real user, do you mean a nontechnical user? If that’s the case, the display server isn’t a choice to be made by such user, but by the distro maintainers. Most people won’t notice the difference, because it’s mostly stuff that happens under the hood.
