You will still be able to use GNOME on Xorg in Debian 13 as you have been in Debian 12, regardless of what GNOME might do upstream. Debian 13 is not Fedora 41. 🙂 There were some changes in GDM's udev rules where Wayland may be preferred in situations where it wasn't in Debian 12, but this doesn't force you to use Wayland. It's possible that Debian 14 "Forky" will not install the GNOME on Xorg session by default but that won't be released as stable until 2027. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
