The big switch from X11 to Wayland is already underway, but you might not even notice, unless you're using a big desktop environment like GNOME.Indeed, while GNOME is already using Wayland by default, and other bigger desktop environment projects like KDE and Budgie are currently working hard on switching their compositors to Wayland, it seems like many simpler standalone window manager projects like Openbox and i3wm are not making plans to switch.Wayland is quite a different beast from X11, so moving to it would essentially equal having to do a complete rewrite for some of these more minimal window managers. Add to that the fact that Wayland's design requires window managers to provide certain features and services such as compositing (in fact, there really isn't a distinction between a "compositor" and a "window manager" with Wayland), lock screen support, or display management, and it starts to make sense why many of these smaller projects are not bothering to switch.However...
