The Linux community is on fire as Xlibre forks from X.Org and claims Red Hat and Big Tech are purging X11 in favor of Wayland, but is it just politics, or something deeper? In this video, I break down what’s really happening with the X server, why the open-source world is so divided, and why this moment could reshape the future of desktop Linux. Whether you use XFCE, GNOME, or sway with Wayland, you need to hear this.
