#KDE #Plasma on #postmarketOS turned my Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro tablet into a laptop replacement. I've been using this for #OpenRGB development when out and about due to its smaller size and way better battery life and I've been very happy with it. The only real downside is performance, but with #OpenVPN and a decent connection I can use #waypipe to remotely use one of my Arch desktops for the more demanding things like compiling.

This is sway, running as a nested session inside my GNOME session. This is cool, but not the coolest part of this screenshot: Sway is running on my server while GNOME is running on my laptop. And I'm not even at home where my server is, and it still hasn't much lag.
$ waypipe --no-gpu ssh server sway

#waypipe on #postmarketOS is the best solution I've ever used for running applications on my desktop at home on my phone while I'm away. It's seamless and apps show up natively alongside local apps with proper touchscreen control, mouse control (via #TouchpadEmulator), #squeekboard OSK, and scaling. I used to think ssh -X was the only thing I missed about X11, but after trying waypipe no way. X11 is dead. I don't miss it at all.

Currently, I'm often #NapTrapped and couldn't really keep up to @teamtype's development speed for the #IntelliJ plugin. My little 14 year old laptop cannot really run IntelliJ anymore. Really annoying how much RAM it consumes.
My desktop PC can: with waypipe and wayback-x11 one can run it remotely. Here is a sketched CLI invocation:
wayback ssh user@host wayback-session idea
I must use wayback-session because #Wakefield of #OpenJDK isn't merged into mainline, yet.

One adavantage to handle it at the SSH transport level would be to not break graphical apps ? #waypipe

CW: Wayland, Waypipe, Woes
@[email protected] Yep, #waypipe is installed on both ends. (Which is already itself a major regression from X11 forwarding, but anyways I did know that needed to be done before it could be expected to work. In fact that was mainly what prompted me to try waypipe again, I upgraded a server at work from *buntu 18.04 up to 22.04 where waypipe is in the main repos now.)
I do not believe I have tried any GTK4 apps. Other than Wayland test apps to verify that in theory it could work, I have only tried apps I have any reason to actually use (and thus need to find some solution for), and that doesn't tend to include GTK apps.
This is all quite annoying because X11 forwarding has been increasingly buggy and slow when done from the local Wayland sessions on my systems, so the feature of #X11 I use is being made unusable without a working #Wayland replacement... -
@[email protected] Good for you I guess, #waypipe has not worked for anything I have yet tried it with other than literally #Wayland test apps. Absolutely useless to me, and how all these years later Wayland still isn't a finished X11 replacement really calls into question the claims that starting fresh would solve all X11's problems.

Today's bug is a small performance problem of `waypipe` when used as a client on `ChromeOS` linux VM: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/-/issues/87
There `waypipe` uses SHM to send buffers around and performs poorly: 5-10 FPS for applications with heavy window updates.
Normally `waypipe` uses `DMABUF`s on linux and is able to optimize their transfer using a video codec. But SHM handling does not have this optimization in `waypipe`. Don't know if it's unfeasible or just a rare case.

I just played a game of Go and a game of Reversi on my #SailfishOS device. #kigo and #kreversi running on my laptop, their interface on the Phone.
Made possible through #waypipe, a kind of X11 forwarding for wayland. -

CW: Wayland: Waypipe
Hab mich immer gefragt, ob #Waypipe nicht ein gigantischer Schritt zurück ist, weil man über ssh beim X Forwarding doch theoretisch bloße Zeichenbefehle für die UI gesendet hat, aber effektiv ändert sich bei der Übertragung nur der effizientere (nun Video-)Codec, wenn man nicht gerade Motif-Programme verwenden will. Allerdings lässt sich klassisches Qt Widgets für native X-Netzwerktransparenz konfigurieren, was man aber wegen Einschränkungen vll auch nicht immer will. … #Wayland

@publicvoit RE: x-forwarding:
I have used X11 forwarding before (to a mac no less) but I don't have personal experience with forwarding on Wayland. Have you tried #waypipe ?
-
@mobian those looking into remote forwarding might also be interested in exploring #waypipe

@chrichri Thanks for the pointer to #waypipe, this seems like a good way to facilitate #convergence between devices, e.g. a @mobian #pinephone and your #linux laptop.
