More than ever, GNOME and Plasma are getting way ahead of other desktop environments
MATE & LXQt already have partial Wayland support. Ubuntu MATE team is using Mir to run MATE on Wayland. Upstream LXQt wants to use KWin but a developer already runs LWQt on Mutter. Expect them on Wayland soon. Cinnamon is going to rebase muffin on a newer version of Mutter, which may bring Wayland support with it. With the move to CSDs, Xfce seems to also start work on Wayland support not too far away in the future. While Xorg will continue to thrive, the way to Wayland isn’t that convoluted anymore.
