You either understood the point and purposely ignored it or just missed it completely. The parent reply clearly means support for wayland, not the protocol.

Being pendantic about the definition doesn't help the discussion at all. It is the type of response you would get on the red website

I read it again and it does not seem obvious that they were talking about apps rather than the WM itself. Please explain to me where that's made clear.

I agree, but I'm curious what the "red website" is? I thought maybe reddit or lobste.rs, but they seem more blue to me. Unless because their logos/favicons are red? Seriously not trying to be annoying, generally curious.

I don't know if you mean blue as in politics, but I mean the literal color red. And well, red is on its name :p

The orange website and the red website are popular slang that you hear around here from time to time

I meant the literal color, too! I guess the new website does have some reddish elements. The old one was entirely blue [1], and I'm pretty sure "reddit" is just a play on "read it".

Ah, full circle, back to being uselessly pedantic. :) But I was really curious, didn't know "red website" was slang for it (well familiar with "orange website").

A Google search for "the orange website" returns a lot of results about Hacker News, "the red website" doesn't return anything about Reddit.
