       @BrodieOnLinux GTK 5 will _remove_ the X11 backend, not deprecate it.There's an open MR, that'll probably be merged soon, to deprecate X11 support in GTK 4 (to indicate that it will be gone at the next API break, which will be GTK 5). https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/8060GNOME (the desktop environment) is going to be dropping X11 much sooner than that. Probably in the next couple of releases. Especially if we can get more STF funding to iron out the remaining blocking accessibility issues

       @BrodieOnLinux Hello. You didn't go into much detail, and I see your audience commenting about it, so:I think it's pretty thoroughly decided that GDM will retain the ability to launch non-GNOME X11 desktops. Luckily this functionality is isolated from the rest of GDM, as noted in the issueWhat will be going away is: "legacy X11" (where one X server running as root is shared by the whole system), XDMCP (ancient remote login for "X terminals"), and GDM's ability to run its own UI under X11
