| I still have significant issues with Wayland. Everywhere: - Barrier does not work On KDE Plasma (openSUSE Tumbleweed): - Thunderbird often flickers a lot, rendering it unusable - apps like cheese or kamoso to access the webcam don't work correctly - selection paste now works after years of waiting, but is not shared between GTK and KDE apps - X apps are other slightly blurry when witch scaling DPIs On Phosh on the PinePhone (Mobian): - VNC does not work. It works on Gnome because it is implemented in Gnome's compositor, but back luck, not in Phosh. Each Wayland compositor has to implement this. So there is nothing like scrcpy on Android that I know of on GNU/Linux phones yet, which would come for almost free with X11. Each feature has to be implemented by each compositor. But then it may take years because people rightly seek to build standards that can make it work between all the compositors. And I still rely on X11 for network display of apps, even between two Wayland systems (though it's not an issue for me, but it is a bummer because we can probably do better than this). It seems Wayland works well if you use Gnome and that you don't need anything slightly fancy. It still does not have this "this will work no doubt" feeling that I have with X11. I'm very careful with apps I run and install on my machine. This security-first design is honorable but gets in my way with seemingly no benefits for me. |
