As someone who’s a week into trying to switch from Windows to Linux, I don’t even know what X11 or Wayland are. My biggest hurdle has been how the Linux community always just assumes everyone knows every little thing. This article is a perfect example. It would have taken a sentence or two to add “X11 does this, but is being phased out”.
I spent at least an hour today trying to connect to a shared network printer! As a geek, I love Linux but it’s still not ready for the masses. And that’s referring to Mint.
Many thanks for the explaination!
