Im happy to see some xfce developments, finally some news that allows all the ****xfce**** user accounts here to post on topic :-)

[R41N3R]

Sounds like a nice bug fix that you can resize now Gtk header bar windows from window edges on Wayland!

[R41N3R]

Which is nice and I'm testing it already. I use Wayland only since a long time. Just wish kwin and Plasma would get after so many releases the necessary...

[R41N3R]

I do have a Intel board and to be fair, it is one of the best ones I ever had, the system in total consumes only 10 Watt in idle. I don't like Uefi at...

[R41N3R]

Uefi must go, this is overdue, it has been enforced on us with all its bugs, slowness, complexity, vendor control, security issues, ... Just I'm not sure...

[R41N3R]

I would love to see more of the firmware blobs getting replaced with proper kernel support. After all the security flaws especially from Intel I really...

[R41N3R]

Plasma on Wayland really could see some attention by the developers. Overall it is working quite well for me on most of my machines (only on a AMD Ryzen...

[R41N3R]

Yes, I'm waiting as well to read some news! Would love to see it advance further and get it integrated into upstream for broader testing....

[R41N3R]

Zink supports OpenGL 3.0 already, as far as I know....

[R41N3R]

That is a kwin rendering issue for certain applications like kmail, system settings or Firefox Wayland, bug report is open since a long time....

[R41N3R]

I'm really impressed how many games work already with D9VK, spend lots of hours testing my library and for this early stage it works much better than...

Having finally a working rectangle screenshot region function in Spectacle on Wayland sounds awesome, waiting since a long time for this!

...

[R41N3R]

This bug is really a bad example of things that went wrong for Ryzen users....

[R41N3R]

To stick with X11 might sound right for now from a stable point of view, but it doesn't make it right. Instead of leaning back, better get the remaining...

[R41N3R]

Seems like an awesome improvement of Kai Uwe, will test it as soon as possible.

Hope the examples mentioned in his blog work on Wayland too,...

[R41N3R]

Yes, it will be. I just think it would be the right way for kwin to go that route, but it would need support from the main devs. Probably the first step...

[R41N3R]

I agree with the comments of several others, ideally we need to get a low latency Kwin based on Wayland and Vulkan.

[R41N3R]

Always appreciated if somebody tries to improve kwin. I do use Plasma Wayland only nowadays, so it wan't be useful for me at the moment

[R41N3R]

I did use it as well quite successful, it's not the fault of this project that more and more hardware vendors lock everything behind firmware. I'm happy...

[R41N3R]

The microphone icon in the task bar makes a lot of sense, nice feature! And switching all audio streams to another device will be quite helpful as well...
