Yesterday my long-awaited #wayland #scheme bindings were merged into #guix
https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/4564

2026. Year of guile scheme on desktop

I built a latency meter with an Arduino and a photo transistor to answer one question: Is click-to-photon latency higher on Wayland than on X11?

And the answer is: Yes, actually.

⏱️ 42 ms on X11, compositing off
⏱️ 56 ms on X11, compositing on
⏱️ 64 ms on Wayland
⏱️ 71 ms on Windows 10

Tested with Plasma 6.3.4 and Firefox 137. I will improve my methods and confirm these numbers. See replies for details.

Hmmm Me thinks that #Waybar has a memory leak as normally it runs with 64Mb ram using my config and uses about 1.5% of the CPU's but after an hour or two it ramps upto 100% useage on all cores and ram useage goes into Gigs until I kill it and restart it. #Wayland #FreeBSD

Just thought I'd retoot a handy link for those thinking about trying #Wayland as it lists a lot of Wayland tools and compositors old and new.

Soo, which tiling window manager, or any compositor really on #wayland has night light implemented?

#NVIDIA #GTX1070 #GPU now working properly on #debian #trixie under both #wayland & #x11 on a #system76 #oryp3 🎉 💅💅💅
 
 
I’ll do a write-up at some point soonish (🤞) to share the [luv|hāt] 🙃

Xfwl4: Xfce soll eigenen Wayland-Compositor bekommen

Das Xfce-Team will eingesammelte Spendengelder in die Entwicklung des Wayland-Compositors xfwl4 stecken.

If you would like to help financially support the development of a new Wayland compositor for Xfce, you can do so by contributing funds via our #OpenCollective accounts.

For US contributions:
https://opencollective.com/xfce

For EU contributions:
https://opencollective.com/xfce-eu

These contributions will help pay for the funding of longtime Xfce core developer Brian Tarricone to create xfwl4, a brand-new Wayland compositor for Xfce.

Thank you for your support!

On the list of "is it dead and unmaintained?" concerns, the #sway window manager for #Wayland isn't looking healthy either 💔

It works great for me still, but I'm starting to worry a bit.

Is there another tiling WM for Wayland I should look at? Maybe #Hyprland?

(Though I recall there was some drama around it ...?)

Hyprland 0.53.2 tiling Wayland compositor is out, improving plugins, window handling, and multi-monitor behavior.

Qué verde está #wayland, no se si es por el #nvidia o qué, pero me rindo, no puedo configurar la resolución de pantalla... será #x11 forever 😆
