Between 2017 and 2018 I developed and implemented the necessary Wayland protocols to support screensavers. It has been possible now for 5 years. The fact that GNOME and KDE don't support them is a critique of GNOME and KDE, not of Wayland, and it's ridiculous to spin it the other way around.
Number of Wayland compositors with support for screensavers: at least 40
Number that don't: 2
Get your fucking facts right.
