Except that the problem can be the DE/WM too.
And people are switching to Wayland already. I did the jump a few weeks ago and this time no step back.
Iāve been Wayland only for more than a year. I donāt do anything that has any issues with it (mainly browser user).
Wayland is fine, the applications and compositors arenāt always. Gnome implements Wayland to the letter and has a great Wayland experience.
I wonāt go into it due to OT but this statement comes from people not understanding what Wayland is and what it isnāt.
Well flatpak can be useful for some sandboxing. Thereās also firejail and other options for native though so puck your poison.
I personally dislike Snap, Iāve had system refuse to boot due to snapd or take ages to do so. Its slower, has a worse sandbox (and flatpak sandbox isnāt even amazing or anything) and brings no real value over flatpak. Iāve never once had flatpak hurt a system by itself, and even beyond flatpak thereās appimage which is another decent option for this sort of redistribution.
They could improve snap performance 100% and just junk the whole thing and use flatpak.

its a hacky mess 
lol, but its been around a long time and mostly has been the only thing we had
On Xorg any program can listen to all keyboard input and record all screens. The purpose of sandboxing X11 is to restrict this behavior, which is especially problematic for complex programs working with potentially malicious input like browsers.

I have no issue with xorg. Wayland on the other hand may work great for those Gnome users but they have other problems to deal with like extensions. I got none and Iām using Nvida BTW! 
Edit: I use Firefox too! Also awesome BTW!
Canāt wait for the next KDE update!

I tend to agree with this.
Take, as a completely random example, xeyes. It works on Xorg, it doesnāt work on Wayland.
Seems pretty clear to me which one is worse.

It works with Xwayland so you can determine if your apps are native wayland or xwayland.
Wrong.
