What do you means by this? What part do you want to be open source? Passkey are just cryptographic keys, no part of that requires anything unfree. There's aready an open source authentication stack you can use to implement them. You can store them completely locally with KeyPassXC for selfhost Vaultwarden to store them remotely. Both are open source?
If you're on the newest version you shouldn't need to manually select anything to use UMU. You just need to be using a Proton runner as your Wine version. I'm using GE-Proton9-15 and I can see in the logs when watching a game that Umu is being used.
You can already use umu with Lutris. If you choose any version of Proton as your wine runner, Lutris will automatically use Proton. One pretty major drawback is that Lutris won't allow you to use winetricks, as umu didn't add support for it until after the last Lutris release. Heroic supports it as well.
I haven't seen the Bottles devs give any info about when they might implement. I'm thinking it might not be until Bottles Next.
The joke is a popular meme of making up things that are happening on the podcast that obviously do not fit the general idea of the podcast. If you are aware of these memes, you'd probably understand the joke right away.
I still think it's not a good joke to make since it can be easily misleading. I'm not sure there was a good way to make this joke while clarifying it was a joke, and they would've been better off finding some other meme to make a joke with.
I think the biggest problem with the joke is that Proton somehow didn't understand their audience at all. I would imagine it leans older and most of their followers wouldn't get it. Most of my Gen Z friends would have understood the meme, but I doubt many of them follow Proton on Twitter.
Is that already true for QT apps on a gtk desktop and GTK apps on a QT desktop?
In my experience, GTK apps feel pretty good on Cosmic, and it has support for automatically theming them with your Cosmic theme. QT apps feel out of place, but this is an issue I've had on every non-Plasma desktop, because I struggle to get theming to work.
You answered your question of why Wayland exists right after asking it. X sucks. Wayland is a very significant improvement, I'm not sure why you think it's a lateral move.
Also, X works for some cases, but not all, just lime Wayland. Using multiple refresh rates doesnt work well, HDR has no hope of ever working, and fractional scaling is horrible. Wayland has initial support for HDR and great support for the other two.
Wayland is a protocol used by each desktop that supports it. It often moves slowly because each desktop works together and discusses each change. If valve forked it, they would just have a protocol nobody is using. If people started using it, it would just slow down again for the same reason.
