Wayland? Does it have colors, window position memory or hotkeys yet? Or are they still in the “we only sell an idea, you do all the work” vaporware phase?
Wayland seems to have problems showing colors properly. I was trying to fix this issue myself a couple weeks ago.
Colors in Xorg and Windows(gross) show properly, Wayland always looks dull and muted in comparison. Switching color profiles didn’t change anything.
But hey, maybe there’s a fix I haven’t tried yet that works… I sure would hate to be proven wrong! No seriously, if someone has a fix for the dull colors I would likely start using Wayland again.
org.freedesktop.portal.GlobalShortcuts allows apps to request a global shortcut binding from the compositor. They can’t just log all your keystrokes globally because that’d be a keylogger. Also there’d be no way to resolve conflicts between shortcuts.
If your app doesn’t support that then blame the app, the interface has been out for a while, and compositors have supported it for a while.
What is missing that makes it a deal breaker? It really seems odd to always see comments effectively saying “we should have stayed with X.Org”. The nice thing about Wayland is that it’s maintained, so new features are being added over time.

Was the last time you read or heard anything about Wayland 15 years ago?

Nov 2024 actually.
People down vote but push-to-talk doesn’t work on pure Wayland

Wayland has a notable piece of “but Elon can do no wrong!” cult thing going for it.

not sure what you’re talking about, but I’ve got colors on my PC xd
Is Hercules even supported any more?
My high resolution EGA display has all kinds of colors. Up to 16 at once, even.
My Wayland is now in Technicolor, but it cost me a few shillings.
