KDE Plasma's KWin announced the next major release will be the last to support X11. Wayland-only from Plasma 7.0 (2027). Current Wayland stability: 95% of user workflows supported, remaining gaps: screen recording, remote desktop, and some NVIDIA driver features. Key improvements in Plasma 6.5 (June 2026): HDR support, fractional scaling at 125%/150%/175%, VRR. Under Wayland, Plasma achieves 20-30% lower memory usage vs X11. Migration stats: 35% of Linux desktop users now on Wayland, up from 15% in 2024. Ubuntu 26.04 defaults to Wayland.
