@techokami@woof.tech @zzt@mas.to @mxchara@cyberpunk.lol idk tho, "three pages of code just to put up an empty window" sounds about like the raw Xlib experience i remember too

@techokami@woof.tech @mxchara@cyberpunk.lol that happens every time I try and figure out how to do something in Wayland! and then I get told I’m doing it wrong

@techokami@woof.tech @zzt@mas.to @mxchara@cyberpunk.lol I have zero interest in Wayland... It seems nearly all downside to me. I think the compositor approach is wrongheaded anyway, if we're gonna redo X11 we should be moving towards server-side widgets; no reason why clicking a button or editing a text field should involve multiple transactions between server and app!
