Moving from Plasma, to Sway, some
You didn't say whether your current config is based on X or Wayland therefore two links with Wayland applications. Are we Wsyland yet and awesome wayland
- When do you think you will switch to Wayland?
-
Wayland Protocol Finally Ready for Fractional Scaling
plenty others of all sorts.
> auto keyboard/mouse scripting with xdotool
There's a few tools for this: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland#tools
> not have unnecessary mouse/keyboard to monitor delay
There's none that I can notice. Mice cursor are rendered with hardware support

With rise of wayland, are simpler window managers dying?
Here's one of many forks of an awesome-wayland repository that lists what's going on: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland
- What are Wayland-native applications and where can I find them?
-
Please do not ship work in progress to users: An open letter from developers to the wider Linux community
customization isn't killed, it just takes time to adapt to a new protocol. check out all the stuff you can do with wayland
- Is there a place to read about recommended SwayWM builds?
-
Krohnkite still does not work in Wayland, and it has not been updated in more than a year. Any alternatives? Is it Kwin's fault?
More specifically, see: awesome-wayland and arewewaylandyet. Sway-addons also has interesting stuff in it, like wl-clipboard which is mostly compatible with Klipper.

Dropping GNOME's X11 session approved for Fedora 41
You can run remote applications with Wayland now: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterp...
There is also a VNC server for fullscreen sessions (only supports wlroots compositors for now): https://github.com/any1/wayvnc
-
Is my use case with X.org possible with Wayland?
There's wayvnc.
-
Asahi Linux To Users: Please Stop Using X.Org
It says on their GitHub page that "Gnome, KDE, and Weston are not supported". What does that mean?
-
What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
I thought this existed in the form of wayvnc but from their README it seems they don't support the popular desktop environments (GNOME, KDE).
-
What are my options for remote desktop software on wayland?
Not sure if I would call it hassle free, but wayvnc isn't that hard to set up.
-
When do you think you will switch to Wayland?
And wayvnc
-
Can I run Sway via remote desktop on a Linode server running arch?
There is however a fresh issue on the wayvnc github with what looks like your problem. https://github.com/any1/wayvnc/issues/206

Use a laptop as a 2nd display on Linux using FreeRDP
On wayvnc git master and sway 1.8 (or git master), you can script things so that a "virtual" display gets created automatically when someone connects to VNC, and removed when they disconnect.
See https://github.com/any1/wayvnc/pull/200/files
The script in the PR does something a bit different, but it's only an example and can be modified to do what I described in the first paragraph.

Intel is using DXVK for their Windows Arc GPU DX9 drivers
No - it's not X, it's doesn't share a screen in the way X does.
That said... if this is a shoddy attempt at a "gotcha" style question - Screen sharing and remote desktop are both supported.
Ex - for Gnome:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Mutter/RemoteDesktop
LibVNCServer for VNC support, FreeRDP for remote desktop protocol.
For KDE:
https://userbase.kde.org/Krfb
Which mostly just works as long as you have Pipewire and xdg-desktop-portal-kde installed (the base plasma-wayland session usually includes them)
This one is a bit less polished - some users still have problems with keyboard input, depending on the distro and other installed packages.
For Sway:
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr works just fine for screen sharing, and you can use https://github.com/any1/wayvnc for VNC access (including having a completely headless machine).

Linux experts, how to start TigerVNC automatically when switching to desktop?
Ah right, looks like the VNC server you're using is xorg only. You can try WayVNC for gaming mode https://github.com/any1/wayvnc .
What are some alternatives?
sway - i3-compatible Wayland compositor
x11vnc - a VNC server for real X displays
Visual Studio Code - Visual Studio Code
bismuth - KDE Plasma add-on, that tiles your windows automatically and lets you manage them via keyboard, similarly to i3, Sway or dwm.
kanshi - Dynamic display configuration (mirror)
kwin-tiling - Tiling script for kwin
FreeRDP - FreeRDP is a free remote desktop protocol library and clients
sway-launcher-desktop - TUI Application launcher with Desktop Entry support. Made for SwayWM, but runs anywhere
noVNC - VNC client web application
xkeysnail - Yet another keyboard remapping tool for X environment
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr - xdg-desktop-portal backend for wlroots
