Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?

  • I think X11 works out of the box but Wayland needs more knowledge and effort for now.

  • True...

  • I believe Wayland should be the default, but we should have the option to switch to X11 (using XWayland on Wayland) if desired.

  • So it begins...

  • Some many specific issues with Wayland... Maybe that's a reason. X11 is a huggeee dependency for a long time.

  • Yeah I agree. Maybe some day X11 will be seen as something legacy that needs to be deprecated. But not now...

  • Thanks for the insight.

    Yeah Blender seems like an exception.

    Also that means I play lots of Wine/Proton games and many web apps / Electron don't care.

    • What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

  • Ia Synapthic up-to-date?

    I joke about being hacker when I share my screen and run long Ansible playbooks.

  • Do that on Linux, update your packages in the café and you can be banished from it as a hacker.

  • But I have just finished the new Dredge's DLC on Cosmic.

    • I Just Removed Ubuntu for Archcraft and my Linux PC Looks Awesome!

  • I use it at work with many servers like EDITOR=vim sudo -e /etc/samba/smb.conf

    However useful when you need some color highlighting or just numers then add it to .vimrc and EDITOR=vim in Bash config.

  • AND IT DOES AS FACTORIO ON WAYLAND WITH NON-BLOCKING SAVING IS AMAZING!

  • Yeah the maturity is on the Gnome / KDE side.

    To have some idea just watch their GitHub repo how they are working towards alpha 2.

    • COSMIC Factorio Edition

    Jump

  • Yeah but I think that's because runs games on X11 so XWayland is needed.

  • The tiling is superior even now. But some things needs more polish as it's alpha.

  • You mean Proton using Wine won't be needed much longer?

    Their customization reminds me of Material You that is supported with apps and the system. And I don't mind it at all, I like it.

  • Yeah summarizing - shit happens but I still love it. For Wayland supported applications the experience is absolutely gorgeous. I play now Factorio that has Wayland and non-locking saves.
