I can work with a system running on systemd, upstart or old good init but I cannot work without screen sharing especially now that everybody is working remotely. I can probably survive with all the other missing features but not this one. I'll consider Wayland only when all the different softwares my customers and friends use will work on it as they do on X.
But remote desktop just barely works on Linux. X forwarding is slow, VNC is buggy especially when certain applications packages expect hardware acceleration, and don't even get me started with all the issues with the keyboard mapping that can arise application to application. Meanwhile in Windows the remote application is close to flawless.
Maybe Wayland is solving that, I really don't know. However I don't need them. What I need is screen sharing in Slack, Meet and TeamViewer and that works with X. I also occasionally need Skype, Webex, Zoom, Jitsi and Teams. They also work with X. I'm confident that any random system my customers throw at me will work with X if it's advertised to work on Linux. Not so much if I were running Wayland.
If X would stop working this morning I'm afraid I'll have to go back to Windows, after 11 years, and use WSL2. Not a future I'm looking forward to and not something I'd thank the Wayland community for.
I've been using NoMachine on my local network for a while, it's fast enough and works on Windows, OS and Linux (you can just about play video over it even).
