This makes perfect sense - the Asahi project is about developing a robust Linux distro for Apple Silicon systems and must focus their limited resources on achieving that goal. Spending time to support X.org - which is quickly becoming deprecated for Wayland - isn't a good use of their limited resources.

On what planet is this true?

update: I sit somewhat corrected. I have retried KDE with an NVidia card and /usr/bin/Xwayland and am impressed. Not 100% perfect, but very usable.
