I had to go with Wayland. TV/Video acceleration on Armbian (AArch64) required it for Gnome.
It seems OK, apart from I still can't run an RDP server (RDP client is fine). I can run an RDP server from X64 Wayland.
X windows was a cool idea, running a window remotely, but I can't remember using it much. So the change made very little difference to me.

I don't *like* X11. But it now just about works OK
 It uses a lot of memory for what it is.
 Lord knows how much CPU it munches just moving windows around
 

I think it was the NextStation circa 1990 that first dragged whole windows rather than outlines, I think computers have gotten better at it since then.
