Can I run wayland software in windows ?

No ? You mean, I must still use the so infamous yet so helpfull X11 to actually print things on my screen ?

Guess I'll stick with X then ?

Come back when you have a working alternative, and please stop using some magical "authority" argument : "a decision has been made" (by whom, where, when, why, with whom authority ?)

Yes. Wayland is the protocol by which WSL programs display on the Windows desktop.

By the X developers, who decided en masse to abandon X and work on Wayland instead.
