The Fedora Project was the first to announce that they are switching to using Wayland by default for the upcoming Fedora 25 Linux operating system, but it will be implemented only for the Fedora Workstation edition, which ships with the GNOME 3 desktop environment. And now it looks like Wayland will be the default display server for KDE-based distros, such as KDE Neon, as KDE developer Martin Gr????lin was proud to announce today, September 6, 2016, that KDE Neon Developer edition is switching to Wayland by default in the coming weeks.
