Hey guys, what are the pros and cons to wayland if I intend to use my PC for gaming + others?
Comparisons to X?
General impressions?
Your advice on if I should use it or stick with X?
My PC parts are arriving soon, and while Ive been a linux user since 2016 its the first time I intend to fully main drive linux, so I guess im just looking for as much information as I can get on it.
Feel free to post links to articles or anything that will answer if you prefer, we’re on a link aggregator after all ;) and I dont mind reading.
Thanks in advance :)
Relatedly, pretty sure most autotypers don’t work. I know that keepassxc can’t do autotype in wayland
keepass (not xc) has a plugin for autotype. I have not tried it yet.
keepassxc seems reluctant to use this method and instead would prefer to push the work upstream https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/2281 .
Unfortunately keepassxc has backed themselves into a corner where the upstream fix referenced in that issue is closed, and they are unwilling to implement a workaround themselves. So it looks like it won’t be supported any time soon.
EDIT: Seems as though there may be a way to do this with xdg-desktop-portal in the near future. But the sentiment about cutting out the middleman only to need more middlemen seems to be accurate for that direction.
