You think Steam will run on it? I need Steam to run on it.

Once they get their Wayland compositor working, I would not be surprised if Steam runs on it.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Interesting! Could I already run another compositor on it, like Niri, and start playing already?

[-] BatmanAoD@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

No; Wayland is also a protocol, and Niri relies on that protocol, so Niri doesn't bypass the need for Wayland support.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Right but if they finish Wayland support, I could run Niri and Steam, basically, right? And Slack and do screen sharing and whatnot.

[-] BatmanAoD@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, I thought by "already" you meant right now. I would expect that you can use any Wayland-compatible compositor once their Wayland support is complete, yeah.

Not sure about Steam.

Ah, oops! I see how you would think that ๐Ÿ˜† My bad! Yes, I meant after their support is finished. Thanks!
