A good sign. Other community distros have already done that, but this is a good sign to the larger community that Wayland is basically ready for prime time.
Am I going to have a bad time trying to switch to Wayland? I just use discord, Spotify, steam, some basic steam games, Krita, and emacs
If you use scaling some apps can be blurry. Oh and screen sharing doesn’t work on discord cause they refuse to update their app. Other than that it was smooth sailing for me
Wow that’s good news, I’ll have to give it a shot
Am I going to have a bad time
yes, don’t listen to the people with narrow use-cases that “work perfectly for them”
Afaict wine uses XWayland. Sometimes with my games I’ll have problems like the game running on one display and expecting input from the other, even when I’ve switched the second display off with wlr-randr. I also have occasional UI scaling problems. Most things works well most of the time though.
With a good compositor, Wayland itself is probably ready enough for most cases. A lot of applications need to be updated to better support it though., and that seems like a lot of work.
Both teamviewer and rustdesk are acting funny as hell since the upgrade. Seriously buggy for me. Screen locks up. Keyboard and mouse also act funny. tiger vnc is ok at the moment. That’s my biggest takeaway. It’s been hard to do stuff remotely with Wayland enabled.
On Plasma 6.1/KWin on Wayland, with newest 555.52.04 drivers, it’s literally been flawless for me
Except blind users cannot even install the distro at all now because all Wayland distros have broken screen readers.
So they gonna give me an NVIDIA card if I use Wayland? Nice!
Why did you switch up the title?
Are they using the beta v555 Nvidia drivers? I, and a lot of other people, are having a lot of issues with the current stable ones not supporting implicit sync.
I installed void linux which I guess defaults to wayland and everything ran like crap until I switched to x11. Have fun with that.
