Linux

Crazyy!

Btw I am XWayland free since today!

I have a list of recommended apps here

Some apps need environment variables:

Qt:

• qpwgraph

GTK

• GPU Screen recorder, I guess

Electron

• Nextcloud Flatpak
• MullvadVPN RPM
• Signal Flatpak
• (Element, I switched to the Webapp in Librewolf)
• Freetube Flatpak

You can use xlsclients -l to detect apps using XWayland.

Some may even want to run apps through XWayland on purpose, like KeepassXC for Clipboard access or autotype. Lets see how long it takes to implement all the needed protocols.

X11 has been mostly solid for me. Wonder if Wayland would be worth messing with.

As someone who switched to wayland way back when sway was dominant...? About time.

Only because it doesn't ask me to recompile the source every time a kernel update comes in.

Gotta resoect the tty. Consistently consitent

I'm willing to bet that, like Linux usage statistics, Steam Deck had something to do with this.

Anyway, I wish I could switch to Wayland, but back when I used it it caused a dozen programs I use everyday to get very crashy.

Should I consider switching? X11 just works and I’d need to rewrite all my config and I don’t really have the time rn.

I just set up xmonad because I was in the mood for change. Took about a week of tinkering a bit each day and I really like it. Afterwards, I was still in the mood for configs and looked at Wayland. There isn't much progress on Wayland xmonad, so guess that has to wait.

That's a common problem I've been hearing for almost 10 now - the software support isn't quite there yet.

Waiting for explicit sync support from nvidia but even then, I doubt I'll switch until I can enable tearing. I'm sensitive to input latency and playing on wayland feels like my aim is floating
