I was the same, but I recently gave zig a try, it's lovely to write.
Managed to segfault the compiler though, so maybe not quite ready yet.

So I don't even use systemd myself I run OpenRC. Yet honestly I find the idea quite intriguing, having the service manager (PID 1) invoke the command seems like a cool idea to me.
It's not really a sudo alternative as much as it is another way of doing something similar.

Wayland is a Display Server Protocol, meaning it is a specification of how a program wanting to display something like a window communicates with another program, the display server, which handles drawing to the screen.
It matters because it vastly simplifies and modernizes display server infrastructure.
X is huge, with many parts from the 80s and 90s that were simply not needed today, creating a fully compliant X Server with all extensions was pretty much impossible, which is the reason pretty much only X.org existed as a full implementation.
Some benefits for users are no screen tearing, VRR and support for more complicated setups like having multiple monitors all with a different refresh rate, which was a pain in the ass on X but is no problem on wayland.
X is going to die, especially with the fact that frredesktop and the two big DEs, GNOME and KDE are working on it. Some distros come with wayland by default already.
I am running gentoo on 4 different systems currently.
Setup can be a bit of a hustle, especially on exotic hardware (one of my devices is a Pine64 Quartz64) but once it’s running maintenance isn’t that big of a deal, an emerge —sync && emerge -avdu @world per week generally is all the maintenance I do.
Also if you want to learn about linux there is probably no better way except LFS which will not leave you with a system you can easily use in day to day work.
I say give it a shot if you have the time and are willing to learn and troubleshoot!
I have no idea about apple design guidelines and am not a UX designer, but wouldn't a horizontal seperator look better? In gtk i would add one here, gives some extra space and more visual seperation.
