I'm sort of a fan of elementaryOS, but there's a few things that stop be from using it as my daily distro.

On one hand, I really love that they've basically nailed that unicorn of a situation where a distribution is super simple to use and seemingly locked down on the desktop, but then you pop open a terminal and you've got all of the power Linux can offer.

On the other hand, it's just not different enough to me for it to be it's own distro, and their release schedule (at least historically, this time they're going much faster) always just seems to be that the version based on the latest LTS release comes out a full year into the Ubuntu release. 12.04 comes out, a year later Luna comes out, a year later 14.04 comes out, a year later Freya comes out, a year later 16.04 comes out, now we just wait and see how long this beta takes to see how long this one will take.

I tried to use it in Luna, then again in Freya, but I always ended up wiping it when the latest Ubuntu LTS dropped, so I just went back to Ubuntu. These days my primary desktop and laptop run Fedora, but everything else runs Ubuntu LTS. I could see any laptops other than my main one running this, but the release schedule has to sync up a little better.

Do they respect the GNU project?

Not any more or less than Ubuntu does.

Are they using pure Wayland yet?

I prefer elementary os over any other os.
I have been using it as my daily on zenbook for 2 years now, even tho it has a few bugs and shit.
