From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think this is the perfect post to bring up XWayland.
That being said, I haven't used it yet (so I can't comment on whether it works flawlessly)! Can anyone elaborate on their experiences with it? I'm curious on it and don't have my hands on a Linux machine at the moment
I have had a problem where some apps will just open to then show up as black. I can't seem to figure out why its not working. It is what it is.
not flawless but barely noticeable that it's there. only time I've ever had issues was with cursor warping in one game
Interesting, thank you for sharing. I'll have to give it a go next time!
