The readme doesn't inspire confidence.
Yeah that's a bunch of red flags right off the bat.
Isn't X effectively dead anyway, and most people moving to Wayland?
It's not just effectively dead. A lot of people, who were core contributors to the project, declared it impossible to maintain, in modern scenarios. Does it still work? Most of the time. But it comes at a massive cost of having to deal with 40 years of tech debt, and band-aid decisions.
But even if you forget about that, this readme is a sign of major mental illness
Yeah, XWayland will be around for quite some time but X11 / Xorg Server as stand-alone display server is pretty much dead.
