The revolution has started, and it looks like the next-generation display server, Wayland, is here to stay, being adopted by more and more GNU/Linux distributions every month.

The Fedora Project was the first to announce that they are switching to using Wayland by default for the upcoming Fedora 25 Linux operating system, but it will be implemented only for the Fedora Workstation edition, which ships with the GNOME 3 desktop environment.
