Preparing for KDE Plasma's Last X11-Supported Release
> not sure if supporting them is even a goal
Technically, it is a goal, though perhaps an optimistic one.
I won't support vicious widgets in the 2.x releases, but I should definitely add support for it in the release/1.4 branch that follows AwesomeWM master/4.4. Not that I think vicious widgets are the best, but technically if it runs on AwesomeWM, I should support it in 1.4.
I created an issue (https://github.com/trip-zip/somewm/issues/599), even if you decide not to use SomeWM. Thanks for trying it out.

Can I start using Wayland in 2026?
If somewm[1] continues to develop, why not? Otherwise I will not be sacrificing my decade-old work style with awesomewm.
