        Aside from the wayland transition finishing, which I posted about above, there’s also anticheat being figured out.

        Then there will be no compelling reasons for normal people not to use linux, unless you have extremely niche software that only works on windows.

      Wayland is nearly done playing catchup, work should dramatically accelerate, the great transition is finally almost over.

      All that’s left to get wayland to feature parity with x at this point is an accessibility protocol (which should also allow xdotool stuff to work), gnome is working on one. Once that’s done and released, a bunch of devs will be freed up to work on new stuff.

      If we’re being nitpicky there’s also these two:

      https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/216

      which will add a proper protocol for global shortcuts (right now the compositors that have implemented it have implemented it with a hack, instead of a proper protocol, extremely minor since pretty much everyone has already functionally figured this out)

      and the window positioning protocol:

      https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/18

      the last few years of linux development have essentially been defined by technical debt, we’re finally about to shake off those shackles.
