TLDR: XFCE and Cinnamon devs are begging beginning to work on Wayland support.
Is is possible to overclock Nvidia cards using Wayland or xwayland?
Wayland has been great on Debian stable after swapping to an AMD graphics card
Keep in mind their time line is like 2 years.
Is that satire? Wayland is pretty great, and there isn’t really a concept of “compatible app” as Xwayland handles that.
Obviously apps that perform X functions directly (clipboard managers, screen recorders, etc.) will need to be ported or rewritten, as it’s a brand new display manager, but that would be the case with any non-X platform.
The “TLDR” is sub heading is completely misleading. Cinnamon devs see they have to move, that’s the reason. “Begging to work” on Wayland is not at all what the article says. Before you downvote, read it. Nothing in that article or the link to one dev’s blog says anything even remotely like that.
How did Mint fuck up year-based version numbering? I did a fresh install on a laptop this year and briefly worried project had died.
