KDE. Because of its simplicity. Unsarcastically.
The 2020s are not over. Not even half ways.

I don’t use Wayland. I can. I’ve tried, but I went back to X. On Wayland, when I take a Firefox tab out of a window to make it it’s own window, there’s a pause of over a second until the new window appears. It drives me crazy every time. On X it’s instantaneous.
I don’t use two monitors, I don’t use Nvidia. For everything else I use my computer for, I haven’t found an advantage of using Wayland over X. So, I’ll stay on X until I’m forced to change, I guess.

When they’re ready.
