I started working on Flyaway with the intention of becoming familiar with Wayland, its protocols and extensions, and the wlroots library. Instead, I ended up genuinely liking all three.

The env var works fine on Xorg though. And yeap, several applications need to catch up. That’s what I meant when I said it’s not wayland fault itself. However it’s been years things have been trying to catch up. Every now and then I try, but a couple of months back I couldn’t routinely use wayland, given all missing functionality plus additional nuances… The hard part is that if not using gnome, or plasma for that matter, getting things working take a lot of time, just to find out some things, I depend on for work, don’t work yet. At any rate, I still pay attention as well, to forums like this, to see if there’s some news that might trigger another retrial…

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
