Clearly not, the amount of gaslighting that I've had a subset of Linux users engaging in trying to convince me that systemd isn't impacting me personally, even though the development time that it takes to fix the integration that Linux software depending on something that's both Linux only and breaks compatibility doesn't have a knock on effect on other software or that it's a skill issue whenever I come back to my computer and see that wayland has swapped all my windows.
Wayland is still broken even on happy paths. $dayjob machine Rocky Linux 9, wayland, Plasma, one update months ago, broke the taskbar, the tray windows and the start menu are now shown at the middle of the taskbar. The launcher is not shown top middle but dead middle. This makes my affairs quite shitty because I use focus-follows-mouse, and the popup areas are not rendered beside the click point but far away.
Why I use(d) wayland on there, I like the Plasma Irixum theme very much but can't use it on X11 because it doesn't work correctly with increased screen DPI - the top window decoration is not drawn correctly, bottom border line is offset up and runs straight through the window name. So while wayland worked as good as X11 I used it because of this one small point, but when it stopped, I just reverted to Plasma-X11.
Lol. didnt 80286 had protected memory (small joke)
It did but it was bad, a flop. Famously Bill Gates scrutinized the CPU.
286 didn't support kicking back from protected to real mode. Supposedly that was an intentional, security feature.
And they haven't provided any mechanism to reach >1MB address space from real mode. If this sounds like a disaster, yes it is.
Fortunately there was a way to switch in and out. And that meant XMS specification could be designed and implemented. A driver that switches between real and protected modes to deliver segment of >1MB protected map to <1MB real mode addressable.
In turn developers of intense applications had a choice to make - kick into protected mode the way Intel envisioned it, and reboot on exit, or use real mode and access extra RAM through DOS XMS services. They used the latter, because with option 1 the users would be pissed.
What used the protected mode are new OSes, Windows, Xenix for 286, etc. But that was a very small piece of PC market then. Very very small.
Intel did pay attention and 386 brought improvements almost exclusively in this backward compatibility area - now you could switch modes freely, and protected mode had a vm86 and traps stuff, so real mode code could be executed in protected mode. This was a tremendeous achievement, because now you could have a runtime library that allows programs to access 4 GB RAM, while the programs can still perform direct hardware I/O. This is why the games exploded in 386 age.
Anyhow 286 without its protected mode is just a 186, and since the protected mode was avoided due to its supposedly intentionally dumb design, the whole thing is a flop. Yeah PC/AT was fast, but it also had 4x the cost of PC/XT.
