Whats wrong for Canonical picking Mir over Wayland?
>>
Because wayland needs more attention. Wayland is sponsored by freedesktop. More standards = better os.

mir is deprecated

it doesn't even have drivers

Wayland was already finalized and software was incorporating support for it when Canonical decided to go against the grain and introduce their own NIH thing. Mir is basically like another X, it's an all in one display server/protocol, window manager, compositor, desktop environment, and it handles inputs. Wayland is just a protocol. Wayland's model is decentralized to avoid becoming a clusterfuck like how X became at the end.

>almost 3 years of active development (not adding the gnome2 development to this) and all they achieved is a grey/green skin and +300MB of ram used
no thx, they cant even fix the mouse input lag, at this point they should pick up dead lxde and rewrite it to have gnome2 look/workflow.
