Controversial?

Rust is a programming language. It is being used in the Linux kernel now, and it is not likely to go away. C was the programming language for awhile, but it's being abandoned. Pascal and Ada were big for awhile, but are no longer used by serious programmers. I've thrown my Pascal books away and forgotten about it.

Almost every distro is abandoning X and going to Wayland. X is obsolete, and only a few diehard members of its religion are maintaining it. Systemd took over Linux entirely, and again, only a few diehard haters maintain other init systems. Technology moves on, and those refusing to accept newer technology are left in the dust. Adapt or die.

Okay well now I know that I'll never have any use for it as I'm not a programmer and have zero desire to be a programmer.

Agreed.

X still has it's use cases, for example I still use X11 with Xfce at work as I haven't found a good alternative for xrdp on Wayland except for some ugly hacks which I find too much work and sound too unreliable. I'll have another look next year if I can find a good workable solution then.

Resistance is futile
