this time refuses to implement standard Wayland protocol

Why does GNOME hate Drew Devault? They never want to implement any of his protocols specifically
>>
I like their hardline approach, more devs could learn a thing or two from them. But their product is dogshit. GNOME is ass and was only briefly made tolerable by Pop shell.

Yusuke's?

Gnome is the retard containment DE so be happy those devs don't work on KDE

What does op get out of having an engagement farming bot? Or maybe it's the mods themselves to make the board seem more alive than it is

they are right desu. The layershell protocol is broken. It allows for full sandbox bypass. You can get full mouse positions, display on top of other apps, capture keybinds...

I wouldn't mind if gnome had fucked off and made their own broken desktop for themselves, but they've continually sabotaged wayland and linux as a whole. qt also self-sabotaged with licensing and language choice so way more applications use gtk than really should, given how crap it is, giving them outsized influence.

Based Gnome, for once

Check the first link it's still not supported in mutter.

The Steam Hardware survey reveals that the KDE version of Fedora is the most popular.
>>
it's not a standard Wayland protocol
the only way something can make it to the actual standard is if Gnome approves it
>>
>>108988657
This is one reason why my application needs to run under xwayland on wayland. That also prevents steam from being a native wayland application and have all features functioning properly, as for example steam has its own notifications. Custom notifications are needed because wayland compositors disable notifications when you record/stream/remote play
>>
>>108988657
>gnome refuses performance cancer
Good. Overlays are for debugging, at best.
>>
>>108988665
Nah they just want to allow any non-gnome style applications. Its the macos of the linux world.

I'm failing to see the issue.

Do you unironically think the shitty steam client is good? Why? Outside of being forced to use it, I wouldn't even bother.

Don't you love running an extra chromium instance that spies on everything you do just to launch a game?

I bet you use vscode

lol no

Wayland is a meme.

Wayland? more liek GAYland lmao

>Hey, why don't you implement this protocol?
We don't want to support that functionality.
>But it can be done using the gnome extensions api.
We don't want software devs to write software that just works everywhere by using standard protocols, they need to have a specific implementation for gnome only

I hope most software devs stops supporting gnome.
