I'm going to try it once 5.20 comes to Debian or Norbert's repos. It should be packaged for Debian too, to optionally replace stock kwin.

I will try KwinFT soon. It is now available on ArchLinux in the chaotic-aur, so no need to compile it by myself.
I wonder how well it will work on Wayland. As far as I know the subsurface flickering issues are not addressed in KwinFT, but this was one of the main pain points of kwin for me (though even there it is not solved completely, Firefox basic renderer works terrible).Last edited by R41N3R; 15 October 2020, 03:08 PM.

Stealing my job! I wonder whether they are going to add exclusive full-screen (unredirection) as well...

I hope Roman's work will be available just as easy as the various kwin low-latency repos for several distributions. That would be an easy way to integrate all of the neccessary bits to be just a drop-in replacement for us users.
