Firefox also uses Wayland on the default RHEL9 desktop and its derivatives, and it&amp;#x27;s been quite easy for power users to enable it in other environments. So it&amp;#x27;s quite well battle tested.&lt;p&gt;I am sensing a large momentum for Wayland in the Linux community though. Finally there is maturity for Wayland in KDE, there is very strong commitment from various projects to default to Wayland (this being one of them). Traditionally more conservative projects like Cinnamon and Wine are finally adopting Wayland too. It seems critical mass has been achieved to get things really moving in the community, and it&amp;#x27;s about time.</text></comment>
