    Games and streaming on Gnome wayland is just very buggy compared to x11. Alt-tabbing out of a game is gauranteed to have issues, such as windows no longer updating, or windows flickering. It just is what it is.

      Might just br a gnome issue and not a wayland one, KDE and wlroots based compositors do much better at fullscreening and alt-tabbing games then x11 ever did for me. Esspecially on my desktop that has a second monitor

        I can’t alt-tab at all out of fullscreen games on Wayland. My workaround is to send the game to another desktop. Annoying.

        I have really bad problems with KDE Fedora and multiple monitor gaming. I have to disable my second monitor in shooters or Iget really bad focus stealing issues. Any advice you can share?

          Also using fedora kde :D

          I’ve just never encountered a problem with focus stealing or alt-tab issues and leave my drawing tablet/second display plugged in. My friend who runs side by side monitors also has no problems on their arch kde setup. Might just be a weird hardware+application combination problem for some

          Edit: try digging in the kde focus settings, I think theres an option to tune focus steeling

      Gaming and streaming is not “buggy on Wayland”, this is vibes bullshit.

        Whatever, keep telling yourself it’s bug free and keep living in your fairy-tale.

        This isn’t a concern of what might be or hearsay, it is buggy.

        I’ll try and record it, if it doesn’t crash of course. There’s things I know that will crash with certainty so I avoid these actions which is pretty damn annoying. These didn’t occur on gnome x11 because I do this often, I had no such issues there, so it’s not vibes.

        Stop spreading your wishful thinking as facts and sugarcoating things for whatever reason.

          I stream gaming to Twitch almost every day from Wayland and used to do it from X11, so cut the bullshit about fairy tales.

          What you are describing is a skill issue based on vibes. You can’t even be bothered to cite a real problem. Give me a break.

            such as windows no longer updating, or windows flickering

            Learn to read, this was in my first post.

              Ignoring the first part of my reply where I tell you I stream and game from Wayland is certainly one way to remain ignorant.
