So you're claiming that back in early 2021, somebody told you that Wine not only was already Wayland-native but that it also had parity with Wine on X? Really now?

Why the fsck do some people feel the need to go online and waste their time saying such obviously fictional BS? It is simply beyond me.

Yes, they told me that everything just works and is ready.

Around the time when GNOME devs claimed that wayland is finished and recommended it as default and Fedora defaulting to it. That was now at least three years ago.

wine works fine in xwayland, you're overstating the issue imo. Fedora defaulted to wayland back in 2016 too, so it's been much longer than that. They were early adopters, nobody else thought it was ready yet.

yeah, if you want stability, you have to stay far away from anything sponsored by RedHat.
Learned that the hard way. Nowadays i just disregard anything they claim by default.

Imagine how horrible the experience must have been if you seriously used wayland in 2016....

So you're here for the trolling, got it. Have a nice day.
