npub1cm7wlyhq6f0yhmert2lsm45s3ej26dl4whu2y8n4w04gqhg3ctxsyn32y8 (npub1cm7…32y8) Full of interesting info but I feel that people are talking past each other.
WAYLAND BREAKS EVERYTHING!
NO IT DOESN'T!
They're both wrong. It's wrong to say wayland is some terrible mess that breaks the world and it's wrong to say it doesn't break anything or there are workarounds.
In reality and _I have tried it_ and recently too, and yeah a TON of stuff was broken and no, sorry, XWayland didn't fix it. I was also _forced_ to move because of distro choices (tbf a distro run by a dickhead but still).
Can we stop this gaslighting saying otherwise? But also can we stop the gaslighting pretending like we don't have to move or x11 is ok?
The correct take imo is YES WAYLAND BREAKS THINGS. But it's inevitable. We HAVE to move, x11 is horribly broken and we are just in this painful transitional period switching between the two.
Everybody can be friends :)
