Finally, to wrap things up, it’s worth pointing out that this StarDict behavior can only happen in an X session. If you’re running Debian 13 with Wayland, then you’re safe, thanks to the protocol’s sandboxed design. And at this point, I guess folks who think Wayland is some kind of big tech conspiracy being forced on users without good reason might want to rethink that stance.

How correct is this? Does it work with XWayland apps?
