The Raspberry Pi project has announced
a new version of Raspberry Pi OS. It includes a number of
significant changes, the most notable of which is that the Raspberry
Pi Desktop now uses Wayland by default for all Pi models using the
labwc compositor:

For most of this year, we have been working on porting labwc to the
Raspberry Pi Desktop. This has very much been a collaborative process
with the developers of both labwc and wlroots: both have helped us
immensely with their support as we contribute features and
optimisations needed for our desktop.

This release also features Linux 6.6.51, improved touchscreen support, a new
screen configuration tool called raindrop, and more. See the
release
notes for a full list of changes.
