    You basically shouldn’t until you are forced to move. Almost all of the improvements so far are in the internal architecture.

    You might notice some tiny differences if you switch, like logging in doesn’t show a black screen at any point, and window choosers when screen sharing show a (totally broken) grid of previews instead of a plain list of window titles.

    Hopefully when X is fully dead (give it another 10 years) we’ll see some actual improvements, e.g. RDP-style remote desktop, good support for multi-monitor, HDR, HiDPI, etc.

      I’m not sure if you have been paying attention but Wayland has come very far in the last year or two. It has XDG portals for screen sharing, HDR (early support), display scaling and plenty of other stuff.
