Even if your distro is using Wayland by default, the Xwayland implementation is probably still used for compatibility with X11 apps, so you still need to patch your systems and make sure that the latest version is installed.
But people told me X is not being maintained anymore.
Actively developed is different from “maintained”
OpenOffice (OO) is being maintained and shouldn’t be used
LibreOffice is being actively developed and should be used as a replacement to OO
Legacy softwares such as X11 and OO get updates to fix vulnerabilities
You prob said as irony, so used this opportunity to promote LibreOffice :)

I invite everyone to take a look at Open Office’s commits over the past few years, it’s hilarious
Its not very actively developed but maintained. Development is nearly exclusively for XWayland
It’s* not very actively developed
English is fine and all, but I refuse to use apostrophes
so no tits? :(

Enough for me.
That makes sense. X is done, and Wayland isn’t.
every ban appeal I’ve made in a nutshell
Part of this is possibly due to Xwayland too
Yeah, they lied. X being dead and full of security issues is just a FUD. Keep calm and carry on using X.
which is in fact the only productive choice one can do :) when distro will force switch, then we will see
Distros already force switch, it doesn’t work as well.
I’m using debian sid and I’ve got no problem in using xorg until today so I’d say you are wrong :)
funny wayland propaganda. They patched these issues, proving they don’t patch issues. Are you serious?
@prodentim I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into this post. It really shows in the quality of the final product.
