  10. Generally speaking, #Xwayland should be avoided for gaming where possible (which still isn't always possible, especially until Steam fix their overlay). The high latency people experience after switching from #X11 to #Wayland does not come from Wayland itself, but the indirection of this legacy compatibility layer. Don't take my word for it, this was measured in detail by David Justo this year:

  15. There currently are two recent #Phoronix articles that are shared widely, comparing #KDE KWin 6.6 vs #Gnome Mutter 50 in terms of game performance (one for AMD, one for Nvidia). What it lacks to me is a disclosure whether this is comparing the pure #Wayland compositor performance or more specifically their #Xwayland integrations. At least for the Windows games I will have to assume it is the latter (as Proton does not yet _default_ to Wayland).

  20. @thelinuxcast this post from who-t.blogspot.com/2016/01/xor is old, but explain the different things that X.org can mean (the foundation, the project) and how they relate to #Wayland (and other things around GPU drivers).

    Maybe @whot should re-publish it yearly. 😄

    Sadly the post does not mention that #Xorg (without a Dot after the X!) is something different (it's the older and once widespread of two popular X-Servers the X.org project publishes these days; the other one is #Xwayland).

  25. I've got a weird issue with #XWayland. It's not a total deal-breaker, but it's just a bit annoying...

    (I'm running KDE Plasma 6.3.6 on Debian Trixie (stable))

    My laptop display (left) is set to 1.85x scaling. My 1080p display (right) is set to 1x.

    If I don't turn on the option to manually scale XWayland applications ("Legacy applications (X11): Scaled by the system"), the X11 applications I use look SMALLER than normal on my main (right) screen. Left screen too, IIRC.

    If I DO turn on that option ("Scaled by the system"), then the applications look great on the main (1x) screen, but they're of course a blurry mess on the left (1.85x) screen.

    I thought the setting meant that the applications would be smaller than normal (unscaled) on the left screen, but they're actually tiny on both screens.

    Any ideas?
