  • Crazyy!

    Btw I am XWayland free since today!

    I have a list of recommended apps here

    Some apps need environment variables:

    Qt:

    • qpwgraph

    GTK

    • GPU Screen recorder, I guess

    Electron

    • Nextcloud Flatpak
    • MullvadVPN RPM
    • Signal Flatpak
    • (Element, I switched to the Webapp in Librewolf)
    • Freetube Flatpak

    You can use xlsclients -l to detect apps using XWayland.

    Some may even want to run apps through XWayland on purpose, like KeepassXC for Clipboard access or autotype. Lets see how long it takes to implement all the needed protocols.







  • I am not a fan because they install all that WINE stuff on the system level which is a huge security degradation.

    Running WINE through Bottles with the latest protonGE through PupGUI works on all distros.

    If they removed that I would consider it.

    Also they remove Firefox and Flatpak Firefox can only use seccomp filters, not sandboxes, which less secure. And due to an rpm-ostree issue those removed packages are never reinstallable.
