Can someone please ELI5 this to me? Everyone seems to get it (as a joke?) but me.
Ooh, it's the logo, god damn it, got it 2 secconds after posting this.
Just in case anyone else stumbles across this and is confused, I'll explain in more detail.
On Linux there are two display server protocols, the very old X11 and the newer Wayland, which was designed as a successor to X11 by its maintainers.
Elon Musk announced today that he is renaming Twitter to X (yes, just X). The above posts takes the mick out of this on this by announcing a social media website called Wayland, i.e. the successor to Musk's X.

Actual defunct process
This is definitely top 10 Linux memes of all time for me.
I feel like Y should be the successor to X.
Whyland doesn't sound as good though.
