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.

Yet again demonstrating Wayland > X11

Font looks ugly, global scale broken, software crashes, games crashes. Fix than and then I will start using Wayland, because is so much "better" like you say.

Font is pretty easy to change with a KDE spin, but I hear you on the rest. I run Wayland on one and x11 on another computer as both seem to work pretty well truly. Makes me think its actually more about hardware then preference.

the problem with the font is rendering
