That sentence is literally meaningless. What wayland? It is still a protocol. Is “the web” bug ridden? Or http? No. A browser can be. So let’s talk about sway or gnome or whatever specifics, otherwise we will just continue to type into the air.
- i-use-nixos-btw 3y agoHyprland, which I believe is based on Sway but I’m not sure. Either way, most of the problems I’ve been having do not seem to be implementation specific, and instead stem from buggy usage of the protocol. It’s no secret that Electron’s wayland support is an ongoing problem, for instance.
- kaba0 3y agoThat’s an ultra niche compositor, so I don’t think it’s fair to conclude anything about the wider protocol. Also, there is a difference between higher level things not working, and something as basic as cursor/window rendering not working - the latter is absolutely stable and working fine since forever.
