honestly i kinda get their reasoning… it’s extra jank, extra complexity and a maintenance burden that shouldn’t be necessary if apps stopped dragging their feet about proper wayland support. niri instead focuses on the rest of the experience and honestly? they’re doing a pretty great job because it’s super fuckin comfy to use and customize, at least for me.
xwayland-satellite is the recommended way to run X11 apps, which are unfortunately still many, on niri. is that “setting my house on fire”? really confused here.
yeah really confused about that reply too. is using anything other than Gnome on Wayland “setting the house on fire”?
but i do have xwayland. please read my comment again.
mostly windows going blank or straight up refusing to show
issue closed != issue resolved though. it worked “a few” weeks ago for me too, and now it doesn’t. other people in fedi and one in that issue have the same problem, so it’s not like i’m alone with some weird setup here.
also i should note, although i did that in the linked issue, that other xwayland compositors do work. they’re just way more janky for running X11 apps seamlessly. so i’m not convinced the issue is elsewhere. i just didn’t press the issue out of respect for the maintainer and the only productive thing to do at this point would be to submit a patch if i am indeed right.
god i wish. half of my X11 apps don’t work, some that used to keep breaking out of nowhere.
Steam works through the XWayland compatibility layer
unless you use an environment that doesn’t support XWayland, like niri. xwayland-satellite used to be the easier route in that case but that seems to be broken now.
edit: wow i always thought people were being obtuse when complaining about “wAyLaNd sHiLLs” in their replies when criticizing Wayland. but now i’m not so sure.
None. Move your living room to the forest and never look back. Be free.
ragebait used to be believable 🚬
Accurate because it crashes on startup for me.
11/10 no notes
are these purists who have never heard of Proton here in the room with us, OP?
couldn’t tell you, never used either.
well, that’s not entirely true. i self host Forgejo and Woodpecker, which i think (might be wrong here, especially because Forgejo does have its own CI/CD now) is what Codeberg offers. anyway, it’s been OK for the automatic deployments of my little projects. pipeline configuration was flexible and straightforward enough to surprise me in a good way.
came here to say exactly this.
also y’all, consider donating to Codeberg if you have an account there, they’ve been getting hit nonstop the last week or so by chuds.
i liked their takes a lot, they didn’t hesitate to call out fossbro bullshit.
they need a break though. no way around it.
“hmmmm in this kirby game… we will have THREE puzzles where you have to hit SOME bombs but not ALL to get the bonus item… ah yes excellent job team!”

no sorry, im here to incapacitate rogue deities, not to redefine how we name these fucking things
aughhhhhh here’s your upvote. git out.
it’s me, i’m the worst there is 🥰
