Strange, I had to manually restart Pulseaudio for months before I finally decided to switch to Pipewire, I guess Linux audio just still sucks!

If that's not enough for your workflow you probably want Waypipe, maybe just Google before you rage for no reason next time! https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/

I never claimed you or others don't need it, just that it's a featore most people don't need... Furthermore almost anyone who claims to need it would be totally fine with a implementation outside of the display protocol (E.g. VNC) too so the amount of people who actually need it is extremly small.

I actually read their privacy policy, that's a great staeting point, well and their lack of E2E encryption is a exception for chat apps nowdays too!

I think thee main reason for some of Waylands feature cuts next to security and legacy stuff no one needs anymore is the unmaintainable giant X11 became but I agree, some sort of reliable way to extend the protocol directly would be cool to have eventually, usually that stuff shouldn't really be in the protocol itself ether tho!

Linux gaming has come to the point where many publishers and developers literally add Wine support intentionally and the game consol with the biggest game library of all time (Steam Deck) uses it but we still have people like you... If you want to use Windows you are free to do so but Linux is a great option by now too!

X.org is actually the foundation behind it and it's kind of behind Wayland as well so you mean X11 but that's a minor complaint I guesd

It dose work with NVidia GPUs too but propriatary software adopts slower to new technologies so the cards with propriatary drivers naturally have more issues and that's sadly still the case in a direct comparison but it's getting better fast

I am not a user of ether one but technically speaking X11 simply has a ton of legacy code to a point of questionable maintainability which is why Wayland exists in the first place

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I feel like taht's often the case but Wayland as the newer protocol usually has the correct architecture with a early implementation while X11 has hard to fix architectural problems. I am a opponend of "whatever works for you" and I think that will be Wayland for most people fairly soon if it isn't already but in case it actually isn't I wouldn't recommend it because, well, it doesn't work properly for you.

I don't think that's a feature many people actually needed, something like accessability is peobably a better argument but I agree with the fundamental statment
