Wayland breaks VMware and steam for me. Am I stupid?
In addition to what Neonred wrote: Steam Deck uses Wayland by default and its Steam is configured to run just fine on Wayland, even if it's possibly using XWayland behind the scenes.
both are still not native and need the XWayland compatibility layer, which is usually (but might be turned off) compiled into your Wayland desktop manager
If dmenu was made by a nazi I wouldn't give a shit because its just dmenu but hyprland is so clearly made by a pack of /g/ zoomers who want their desktops to look like 1337 haXors without any access to the low level systems. Its all discord script kiddie hype-beasts.
Its a tiling window manager made by people who never used a tiling window manager on X11. I know I'm sounding like an elitist boomer but this shit really violates some core Unix principals of making small composable utilities that empower the user. RiverWM or Sway keep to this philosophy.
that's like 75-80% of all development these days. bunch of discord scriptkiddie crapware that's not even worth the headache to "configure it right".
I shouldn't have to configure shit, it should just fucking work.
I blame silicon valley startups and vtubers. these low effort wannabe developers just want to make a name for themselves to move up the ladder. problem is, when everybody is artificially inflating their hype-blimps something is bound to crash and burn.
we used to write software to solve problems, not make up problems to solve with software.
each year I get closer to retirement I'm grateful I won't have to put up with these egotistical inflatable engineers or their "solutions" for any longer than I have to.
Whats your opinion on qtile?
Qtile is great because its a program-your-own WM. I think awesomewm is the same and offers Wayland support now.
too bad the guy behind hyprland is a shitty little nazi twerp
What did he do ?
