What’s the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven’t found anything useful on the internet, so I’m asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.
Multiple screens and clipboard changes. Wayland has a lot more security built in. Keeps applications from seeing what other applications are doing.
Scaling issues, again multi monitor.
The ones that affect me: Remmina RDP sessions using muliple monitors. I have to launch it with
GDK_BACKEND=x11 remminaLibreoffice displays terrible on any screen that is a different resolution than the one orginally launched.
It too can be forced to use x11 as a backend.
And so through the xwayland tools it really has been fairly painless even with these issues.
