Thanks Mick, I think we need to start a slob-user club (-: Like you, I have a modest need for X11, in my case to run the version of emacs I like best and my favorite terminal emulator, Eterm.
So any practical experience or advice on whether to jump back to XQuartz would be much appreciated. I would prefer not to take the time to be the pioneer on this one. Running BigSur on a Mac mini with M1 processor. Thanks!
