My trouble is the Wayland Desktop session in Ubuntu LTS or openSuSE-Leap silently failing ever so often on different machines after a Wayland update. On production machines that's not something I can tolerate nor have the time to investigate, with my employees waiting.

You need to see the timecode somehow...

They can't!

As a teacher in luddite Germany: yes our smartboards still Run Windows Media Player + I need that bar visible so I'm able to stop the movie at the correct teachable scene.

(And before anyone suggests making a custom playlist with vlc and all those newfangled contraptions from around 2005: I don't even have admin rights to change the sound volume...)

They are pretty nice and if you are on your bike in traffic behind one, the feeling of not being dieselized is amazing ....

Unfortunately in production use Wayland feels like X.org from around 2000 (before the renaming). I was told not to worry about 'corner cases' but when small bugs pop up daily I just can't drive Wayland on my main office machine, although I'd really like to.
