Yes, and you mentioned RDP as an example, but it has the latency issue described in the article (the same as a wayland Wayland solution would have).

- cryptonector 9y agoI mentioned it as proof-by-existence of people wanting remote displays. Thicker and thicker. EDIT: Allow me to quote myself: > And who wants to support remote displays anyways? Oh, well, right, ssh display forwarding, RDP, -- these exist for a reason: users need remote displays! Is that not crystal clear? Several remote display technologies (X11, X11 over ssh, RDP) that exist... because users need them.
- jhasse 9y agoYes, that's why Wayland will support remote display via something like RDP or VNC, that was never out of question. What won't work is network transparency / SSH forwarding.
- cryptonector 9y agoNor will it be low-latency.
- jhasse 9y agoDo you think RDP's latency on Windows is okay? Keep in mind that the latency is only for changes to the mouse cursor and some window operations. Most of the time you will actually use the content of the window which has the same latency as ssh -X forwarding.
