On my Thinkpad T60, Wayland is useless with and without GNOME. It just doesn't work, and nobody on the project gives a shit. So, instead of shelling out for a new computer when the one I have works fine, I stick with X11.
Fuck Wayland.
Fuck Wayland.
Fortunately Xorg works splendidly.
Why are you angry on wayland ? Because they try to make things better for normal people ?
I was using until recently Sandy Bridge platform, and It works fine. I am not expecting that it would be supported forever. There is a lot of performance and maintainability left on the table because of support for old devices. If anything, I wish for Linux world for more aggressive deprecation policy.

You can just leave Linux community, nobody will miss you.
