      sighh, that sucks

      does this go for pretty much all programs, like say an email client too? or is there a limit to this?

        Only those that must interact with non-standard Wayland protocols, such as screen capture tools (like OBS), clipboard managers, WM utilities like xdotool… Other programs such as email clients or text editors are unaffected.

        However, this is a non-issue as far as most users are concerned. There are only a handful of implementations (basically, GNOME, KDE, and wlroots which is used by most Wayland WMs) and most modern programs which require specific support to work are all compatible.

          still frustrating as all hell, these programs just worked on x11

          also Synergy/Barrier/etc dont work yet and would need “non standard” protocols. Pretty critical for me

          I am an enduser and I just expect things to work, but one of the most critical things of my setup wont
