x11 doesn't do much of anything to begin with, these days. It will still exist for the people that want to use it, but distros are right to not default to it anymore.



Did they ever fix the accessibility situation on Wayland? Non-accessible defaults are not great IMO.


The issue is still open for GNOME, so I would assume it still is very much a problem: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/9


gnome and cosmic are both using accesskit for some of the parts that aren't completed yet.
