    Zink is part of Mesa as of 24.1 by default, but not enabled by default so OpenGL will still be used. Append this to the beginning of a game launch command.
    Code:
    MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink
    For example, to use it in Retroarch
    Code:
    MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink​ retroarch
    I doubt the Wayland driver for Wine is ready for mainstream use so unless you;re curious I'd wait until it's more mature.

    I plan on testing wine wayland soon with flutter. flutter apps are utter crap on linux natively, I wonder if wine will be better

    I wonder, does Wine Wayland handle fractional scaling? or is it fuzzy?

    so can one reasonably run wine on wayland with that or whats the state of things? i just did a fresh gentoo install and went with wayland, having never tried it before now. i havent had to install xwayland for anything yet which is neat but now im wondering what things actually do need it and what determines that exactly?
    only app for which i have xwayland installed is steam

    I've been playing Windows games through DXVK on Wine's Wayland driver without issue on a gamepad. It's working well!

    Basic means basic (it's not fully featured). You can reasonably run the Wayland driver with OpenGL but some features will be absent thus some things won't work, in layman terms it's still in early development.

    And since the whole Wayland driver in Wine has not been recognized as stable (or on by default), it's still not ready for the masses but you can try it as an experiment.
