waypipe works. Instead of doing `ssh -X user@host <command>` I do `waypipe ssh user@host <command>`.
Could be faster, but it does work.
- Gud 2y agoHow is it compared to X11 forwarding?
- nona 2y agoWell to my surprise, waypipe seems to be faster, especially when it comes to input latency and such. I assumed it was a bit slow because of the long startup lag; but it seems it's mostly because of my slow (WiFi) network, and is even worse with X forwarding. I just tried opening the same (simple) application through waypipe and through X forwarding, and using waypipe it's actually a lot more usable. (Using waypipe 0.9.0-1 as packaged in Debian).
- Gud 2y agoThanks a lot for the answer! I’ll give it a go when I have a wayland system
