There is no way they aren’t rethinking the X-Pro3 screen. It’s been failing too often for them not to. It will also certainly have IBIS. It will be 2023 and Fuji is not Leica. They cannot get away with it again.

Fujirumors is claiming the X-Pro3 is discontinued

True...

and that the X-Pro line is likely dead.

Where did they say it was dead?

It's been edited since first published on 21 December, but FR originally said in a post that it was leaning towards the conclusion that the line has been canned since the X-Pro3 has been cancelled and there is no X-Pro4 on the way. The thread that followed debated this possibility furiously, speculating that the X-Pro3 had too many problems and that the XT5 is the actual replacement.

If it’s been edited that suggests that the author either realised they jumped too far with their conclusion or perhaps even received some information (behind the scenes) to the contrary.  Patrick at FR famously hates getting caught out and appearing to side with the wrong rumour.
