<pre>High! I was reading articale about linux downsides:
<a href="http://itvision.altervista.org/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html">http://itvision.altervista.org/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html</a>
There were highlighted two Wayland minuses:
1) Applications (GUI toolkits) must implement their own fonts antialiasing -
there's no API for setting system wide fonts rendering. What??! Most sane and
advanced windowing systems work exactly this way - Windows, Android, Mac OS X.
In Wayland all clients (read applications) are totally independent.
2) Applications (GUI toolkits) must implement their own DPI scaling.
It all sounds scary, is it possible for wayland to fix these issues? Should I
open one new bug report for font-antialiasing?</pre>
