Valve Engineer Mike Blumenkrantz Hoping To Accelerate Wayland Protocol Development
  • Wayland implementations can still be hot garbage on any of the major DE's depending on the hardware and use case. The "iT WoRks FiNe FoR mE, SmOoTh aS butter" crowd don't help this. I'm willing to bet that a lot of issues that people write off as a "linux" problem is actually a Wayland problem and don't bother to test under a true x11 only environment (KDE x11 does not count). My ultimate issue with this constant Wayland changeover evangelising is the failure to identify actual end user problems that need solving so badly that it requires forcing through an entirely new and often broken system.

  • I'm joining the Wayland club on Nvidia
  • On a microsoft surface, just switched back to X11 from Wayland. Multiple applications segfaulting that run fine under X11. Mode switching in kde is miserable under Wayland with it being completely random as to how the resizing is applied if it doesn't just crash the DE.. Works perfectly under X11. Weird power state switching under Wayland causing background tasks to fail. Again works fine under X11.
