This is a real shame. I'm using X11 still because Discord doesn't work properly with Wayland, and the alternative (Vesktop) doesn't support keybinds when the window isn't focused. Since my distro (Arch) doesn't support holding back packages, I guess I'll have to switch distros entirely so that my Discord setup stays working. :/

#42Earlier quoted context omitted.
The future is now old man.
Why do you think it's acceptable to insult someone when they have a legitimate concern regarding a software defect?
Just so I'm clear: I still think it's too early to drop X11 support (even though Wayland has been basically fine for me for a long time).

You can use IgnorePkg in pacman.conf. Things might break, but the feature exists.

#44I tried Wayland earlier today on my home lab with Plasma and FreeBSD. It seemed pretty great for a bit and ran my monitor at 120Hz. Until it hard crashed my machine after I opened discord in firefox. Konqueror crashed on opening.

Is this specifically to do with screen sharing or streaming? I use it purely as a chat client under Wayland and it has generally worked fine.
(Now that I think of it, I've had a few weird crashes, but nothing which made it unusable)

#48Wayland has still no way to set DPI of multiple monitors. The fonts look terrible on it. I had to move to KDE Plasma on X11 ever since GNOME started forcing Wayland on us. I guess I have to buy a 4K monitor in future.

Sure it does. I have that set right now... Fonts looking terrible seems to only be when using an x app on wayland

#50As a fvwm user, if Linux forces Wayland on me, I guess my 30 year use of Linux may be coming to an end. Oh well.
