Wayland Is Pretty Good
Turns out that Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS has a library out of sync.[1] No Wayland use of Vulkan on LTS until mid-2024. Apparently fixed in Ubuntu 22.10.
Back to Xorg for now.

- Do you guys use X11 or Wayland for gaming?

Is the AMD experience really that much better than Nvidia?
Why the "" earlier, then? Well, there's Wayland... *Almost everything works as it should, except for native WL apps running on vulkan. It's a known bug that's supposedly being worked on, but with no fix in sight. Vulkan apps running through Xwayland run fine, though. I usually stay on X11, so it doesn't really affect me.

Dell XPS 15 9520 and Ubuntu - A great match with some rough edges
Some Wayland apps were not working due to this issue, but there's a workaround. I set __EGL_VENDOR_LIBRARY_FILENAMES=/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d/50_mesa.json in my /etc/environment and they run fine now.

"We understand" ;)
This is partially why i use tools like i3 (/ sway). i like the tool; it works extremely well for me; the design has stayed the same for 20 years; there's no profit motive to come along and fuck everything up. it just works. it is boring in the best way possible.

Firefox on the Brink?
I also have crashes on sway, but there’s a rough workaround now which prevents the issue totally.
I believe there’s a design issue with Firefox and GTK handling input events; some Wayland compositors have workarounds but others do not.

Firefox is my preferred browser and I hope we can keep its engine alive in this era of Chrome dominance.

Sourcing dot profile on sway starutp
I'm seeing this: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Setting-Environmental-Variables but I haven't figured out how to make GDM do it, and I was wondering if there was a super simple "HEY SWAY READ MY .PROFILE" thing I could do.

Option to not scale xwindow clients still out of the question?
So I searched around and found the following bug report where this problem and a possible solution was borough up: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/2966 , which was then immediately closed again.

What Desktop Environment or Window Manager do you use on your Arch Linux System and why?
I've been using Sway since late 2019. I like the workflow of a WM. I honestly find it hard to go back to a DE, I like having a minimalistic desktop.

On Desktop GUI Minimalism
Sway is fast, minimal, and flexible. Their recommended tools/addons are worth a look: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway
From that list I use greetd + tuigreet as my login manager, sway-launcher-desktop for FZF-powered app launching, and wob for lightweight brightness and volume display (send '50' to the wob socket and it'll show 50%; it doesn't get simpler).
