Electron can go eat a burrito suck 23 balls and die pissed itself
Hold up. Is this the Electron that is effectively just google chrome running web apps ? I thought this was undesirable, it being bloated and slow? I’ve noticed a few server apps starting to use Electron, which seems like a bad idea. What have I missed, and why is it so important?
Do they imply Wayland forces apps to have CSDs? It is only GNOME that does it.
SSD is still supported, just tested Spotify and Flathub’s Electron test app in a VM with Plasma.
now to wait out the years for old game launchers and wine to follow suit, and years more for proton to get it…
wine already has it…
electron/cef apps doing cross process rendering can’t display sooo
What is “cross process rendering”?
no clue what you’re saying… works on every system I have
Then you’re either not using the native wayland driver, or you’re running apps that don’t use cross-process rendering. Try Ubisoft Connect or Jagex Launcher. Ubisoft Connect just displays a tiny window with nothing in it, but is probably supposed to show an error message, and Jagex launcher just shows a black screen, according to this comment.
So unless you use a wine version patched to include the cross-process rendering code that was apparently already developed by Collabora (which I think is located here), you’re not gonna get these apps to work.
