- vidarh 4y agoI don't think there are any remotely mainstream platforms there isn't an x11 server for.
- jenadine 4y agoGood point. Blink could even ship with a X11 server. (Or Wayland compositor? To be more modern)

- microtonal 4y agoXQuartz does not properly support HiDPI, so it's never going to be great on Macs anymore: https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/91 https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/91 Besides that, even Linux is slowly moving to Wayland.
- terhechte 4y agoWell, there is a Wayland Compositor for macOS: https://github.com/owl-compositor/owl https://github.com/owl-compositor/owl It still lacks a lot of features though (I think, I never tried it out)
- vidarh 4y agoMoving to Wayland does not prevent X11 apps. And I don't think anyone would expect this to be a good solution for crossplatform guis. More of a fun starting point.

- vidarh 4y agoThere's also xpra, which gets you a browser interface to X apps.
