Fedora 43 may drop GNOME X11 under a new proposal that aligns with upstream efforts to focus entirely on Wayland from now on.

    Because you can run a “rootfull xwayland” session which is essentially an X11 session but rewritten to be more maintanable.

    After this, it’s a lot harder to be opposed to the loss of X11, because you don’t really lose it.
