What is this “massive fragmentation” you speak of?

Anecdotally, I’m using Plasma, and every Gnome or Gtk app I’ve tried appears to be working perfectly, and vice versa when I occasionally try out Gnome.

Much less so for DIY/BYOB desktops like Hyprland, but I feel like that’s what you sign up for there.

Click any protocol, very few outside the core and absolute essential extensions have universal support.

That's one of the things that freak me out about Wayland.

The DIY/BYOB experience is perfectly viable in the X11 world. I don't think I've ever had a piece of software balk at me because I used FVWM instead of kwin. I don't want to be railroaded into a desktop environment with strong opinions and mediocre tools when there's a sprawling flea maret worth of software to explore.
