Exposing the Wayland lie (2018)

Not to mention older hardware that is perfectly capable of running LXQt or Fluxbox under X11 is unable to even start Wayland due to the GPU requirements. Most Wayland proponents point to network transparency, multiple clipboards, and remote desktop sharing as “legacy cruft” that isn’t needed in X11. And unlike X11, where a compositing window manager crash may leave you without window decorations but a simple `kwin_x11 –replace` from a terminal or SSH session will bring you back to full working order, a crash in a Wayland compositor will terminate your entire session.
