Explanation

X11 (X Window System / Xorg) and Wayland are display server protocols - they are the underlying servers that manage graphical output and input on Linux. KDE, GNOME, and MATE are desktop environments (clients that run on top of a display server). VNC (Virtual Network Computing) is a remote desktop sharing protocol/tool, not a native GUI server. Only Wayland and X11 function as the actual GUI server layer that other graphical applications connect to.
