The important bit not mentioned here is that FW machines are both user serviceable and user upgradable. No need to eat the cost or create the waste of replacing a perfectly good chassis and display, and then sell off the replaced mainboard on the market.
Yeah, same experience on Wayland + GNOME for me. I want it to work, but stuff just breaks too often for me to accept at this point. How much of that is Wayland and how much of it is other things failing to work properly with it is kind of immaterial. Regardless, I’ll happily jump ship when it’s more baked, but now isn’t that time.
