OpenGL (GLFW and GLAD) not linking with cmake
There is a pattern to it which is usable with every GitHub repository. For example, GLFW v3.3.8 can be fetched from: https://github.com/glfw/glfw/archive/refs/tags/3.3.8.tar.gz
What exactly would I fetch with this method? He's fetching a raylib url, but I don't really see a pattern in it I can follow when fetching glfw. I assume I can use this repository? https://github.com/glfw/glfw

Curseforge Minecraft running on M2?
I'm not sure how to fix it, sorry. I searched for some of the messages and found this bug: . I think overriding the LWJGL library might fix the issue, but I don't see any way to do that with the CurseForge launcher.
- GLFW has merged proper support for client-side window decorations on Wayland!

Newbie questions about how to start
To go multiplatform with OpenGL / Vulkan (harder for a beginner) you can use a simple window library like GLFW and Dear ImGui for UI. I use these for Avoyd, along with a few other libraries.

Cursor scaling on Wayland is not there yet
I recently started following the Learn OpenGL tutorial and noticed that when I create a window with GLFW in the Wayland GNOME session the cursor becomes much larger when hovering over the window. This is because a Wayland client is expected to define its own pointer (cursor) and that seems to lead to inconsistencies between implementations. I do not have a problem with CSD being default on Wayland (I even prefer it when done really well, like Telegram Desktop, or any GTK app with GtkHeaderBar) but the cursor switching scale while moving it over surfaces (windows) is much more jarring.
