Mint is literally ubuntu-BUT, what did you expect? if Debian keeps X as primary graphical server (doubt since they're de facto red-hat mongoloid little brother since the introduction of systemd) then lmde will as well.

Yeah that's obvious, especially considering they use so much GNOME code.
What did you expect?
Do you want them to not support modern displays, GPUs, high refresh rates, HDR, fractional scaling?
XLibre is neat but it wont deal with those issues anytime soon.

isn't the default Debian desktop GNOME?
I think it defaults to Wayland.
I don't even think the terrible debian-installer they made uses X11

What? The whole reason Xlibre exists is because people were actively curtailing efforts to include modern hardware support.

Anon a lot of this crap is also due to the X11 protocol's limitations
like the proper multimonitor stuff

>Linux distro derived from Linux distro derived from Linux distro that murdered its own founder to switch to systemd is going to use wayland
I'm shocked. How could this have happened? I guess it's over. Not like over 9,000 distros exist or anything.
Oh wait. I don't use linux at all.

Is Wayland its own thing or does it need X to work?

It runs XWayland which basically runs X on top of Wayland. Just like Macs need Rosetta to run existing apps on their arm chips.

not sure what you mean here anon, X already supports those

multimonitor also works fine on X (mixed resolutions/refresh rates). the only thing that doesn't is mixed scaling across multiple monitors
