    What do you mean? All the major Wayland compositors use HW cursors.

    You're probably hitting https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1624743 , which was fixed for Firefox 76.

        It -is- a hardware cursor. Wayland is just simply incapable of syncing output on input, so it has no way to keep the rendering lag of the mouse cursor smooth. Or for that matter any input, even joystick and gamepads. Under CPU load there can be multiple -seconds- of input lag because of it. Wayland simply wasn't designed for desktops and you can just forget gaming totally.
        Is this guy serious? I must be hallucinating when I'm enjoying perfectly synced games with zero input lag on Wayland at this very moment. Happy Sway user here, so Wayland is not just working out for GNOME. Anyways, thanks to Martin and RedHat indeed.

            the only one confused here is you. rhel was always free, you can't distribute non-free stuff under gpl. support for rhel wasn't free, but not code

              first, cla is not project's license. second, not every project has one. third, even among projects who have one, there can be less evil cla(like one from gnu) and more evil cla, like one from canonical

                so are you still using your paid-for browser from nineties ? or you are using free one while spitting your poison to it?

                  actually he is defending firefox. without redhat he wouldn't be able to use firefox on wayland or at all. so who is paying you for attacking firefox? or we should apply hanlon's razor here and call you imbecile?

                    As much as I want to use Wayland on KDE Plasma, it' still buggy and I think it will still need months or most likely years to improve.
                    why not hope for kde to fix their bugs then?

                      but you don't need "unethical cla" to work in fedora. in particular it doesn't allow redhat to relicense your code, that's the little difference between "cla" and "evil canonical cla"
