1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    X programs work fine under Xwayland for the most part

    [–] kuberoot@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

    Not tools like screenshots, screen recording - because Wayland is inherently different, you couldn't make those work in Xwayland without sacrifices.

    I think Wayland is in a good enough state to be a daily driver for most (non-NVidia) users, but there's still big caveats to keep in mind that can be deal breakers.

    I was talking about xorg specific tooling. For example sxhkd doesn't work in wayland. Swhkd is the wayland alternative that should work in both, but the last release was 2 years ago, is only available through AUR, and when I compiled it, it didn't work with either Wayland or xorg.
