Apparently theres a "better wayland" already as is -- forgot its name now. I'd love to see it overcoming both wayland and Xorg.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Personally I'm excited to see Flatpak become more widespread and usable, fixing some "rough around the edges" aspects of it. I've been using it quite a bit this past few months and I think it presents a really coherent, simple vision for how to do package distribution that solves a lot of pain points. The sandboxing functionality is critical and easy to use, I don't need every app to have access to everything in my home directory.
Just using it like I've always been with as little change as possible.
Ubuntu 24.04!
Nothing about 2024 excites me. I wish my attempt in July had succeeded.
