How is Wayland "ready" when critical things like idk, non QT apps quiting when the compositor crashes (and thus losing progress!) are called a "non showstopper"
Yeah... This one actually is a showstopper. And I thought it was fixed, didn't realize it was fixed for QT apps only
@klangcola @mnglw there are MRs to GTK, wlroots and SDL but the applications/framework will merge and publish the fix at their own release schedule
So it's not a showstopper for KDE Wayland default because the fix is outside KDEs control?
It doesn't really matter to end users though. So making the may-suddenly-loose-hours-of-work option the default seems unwise
@klangcola I'm not commenting on whether ot should be a show stopper or not. Just that it will eventually come also for non-Qt apps with MRs from KDE contributors to other projects.
so Wayland is not ready to be a default yet
