I really want to use wayland - and even though maybe I shouldn't I still do on my laptop - but man... on Plasma 5 that thing is borked. And I'm not even running on NVIDIA.

Whenever the system wakes up from sleep or an external display reconnects all open windows are gone and the system enters a weird state which forces me to reboot. How was "all windows are lost when the compositor crashes" not something fixed in the early days, is beyond me. That must make even developing for Wayland unnecessarily difficult/annoying.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
