      X* predates almost everything still in common use.

      Which is, frankly, amazing.

      It’s also why Wayland took (is taking) so long. It has to compete against X11 with decades of development.

      That’s a tall order.

        it is ancient when talking about computer related things. 1984 was the initial release. Almost twice my age holy!

          Well I’ll just go ahead and die of old age then since I was alive during its initial release
