Ihey fixed this, it should be working

Half complete is a nonsense claim, all that’s missing is better accessibility and some xdotool stuff. I’d go so far as to say that it’s x11 that’s half complete.

x11 is horrible… no way to support mixed refreshrate/dpi displays because it’s fundamentally against the design, as well as no model whatsoever for security… yeah, wayland needs accessibility sure but at least it isn’t fundamentally broken.

any app being able to keylog and screenread is my standard of a horrible model.

if you don’t need accessibility stuff or an extremely small subset of xdotool functionality (see kdotool) it’s better and safer in every way.

wayland is a major overhaul that massively improves things dev-side, security-side and hardware-support side, pipewire is not nearly as important of a change, and pulse wasn’t nearly as horrible as x11

I am allowed to have preferences, and I am not making factions, just stating my preference.

i never said anything about hyprland being more customizable, I said it’s better if you’re willing to configure things, if you don’t want to build your setup from scratch kde is great!

i disagree that I even implied what you’re saying.

I never said it wasn’t customizable, I don’t know why so many people heard that.

Most people do not in fact look at the settings of their computer.

It is very customizable, that does not counter my claim and I never claimed it wasn’t, but if you’re going to get deep into customization a basic wm or compositor will usually be better, simply because they are modular and hyprland is absurdly feature rich.

i don’t know why you’re saying I didn’t research this, or I was uncivilized, I just gave my counter opinion. You are clearly misunderstanding me or reading into things I did not say.

yup, which still aligns with my caveat

“Unless you don’t want to configure anything”

That’s why I said “if you don’t want to configure anything”

Of course, I recommend kde to people who don’t want to configure anything and want a windows like experience, but when saying something is the best, as they claim, these qualifiers become important.

best for what?

Hate to say it but no, hyprland really is unless you need a windows like experience/don’t want to configure anything.

You probably could with a phone

Mate and xfce are not on wayland yet, so yes, and the biggest things missing are accessibility protocols and xdotool functionality.

Oh nothing important, I’m a long way away from home and won’t be home for quite a while, meaning I can’t test myself and am curious of the status of wine-wayland.

Thanks that’s helpful.

Are you using -git?

Thank you I really appreciate your kind words.

Fedora is not preferred because there are legal issues surrounding patents, this makes it so that if you want to, for example, watch a twitch stream… it just won’t work.

bazzite and aurora have fixes for this built in, which is why I recommend them over raw fedora.
