I have heard the dismissal, I have been told I don't matter, I have been told I'm a edge case.

But I'm telling you wayland, I chafe at you taking away my optionality.

Sometimes I ~need~ that feature, and when I need it, I need it bad !

I understand that the IBM money pouring into wayland is super happy about the linux world losing network transparency for apps, stripping power users of their inconvenient toys.

But I'm telling you, I need it.

No, waypipe isn't it.

~~Also, no longer having distinct window managers from the compositor give me serious bad vibes but this isn't what this is about~~

Yeah, OPs rant seems useless to any developer trying to be helpful.

There are quite a few people who might want to do something but have neither used the X ssh pass-through nor have any thoughts about waypipe.

It would be good if you could even just link to the feature requests you might have given on their forum/bug tracker/issues. And not Discord links. I for one, am not opening them.
