Prominent KDE developer Nate Graham put out a blog post today reaffirming the KDE Plasma's intent that Wayland is their main focus and X11 support continues to be maintained but eventually it will go away. Nate Graham also noted around 73% of KDE Plasma 6 users are already using the Wayland session.

I have 2 computers with KDE which I've been using for the past 6 months or so. I recently read about how to switch to Wayland (log out, find the option, log back in). Both of my computers were using X11, not sure why. Maybe I chose that during installation.

I switched both to Wayland and I'm going to do my best to stick to it. One of my computers has an older Nvidia card but luckily I don't seem to have any problems.

Purely anecdotal, but maybe a large part of the 27% using X11 don't even know the difference.
