Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.


You can always switch to Slackware Linux.
The current release doesn’t even include a Wayland session yet (nor systemd).
And judging by the project’s history, the next major release is likely going to drop in 10+ years.
