There are other submitted Merge Requests to that gnome-session GitLab repository that are 3 years old and are still open. This is only a proposal, and doesn't actually mean it's happening.
If GNOME developers want to focus on expanding Wayland support instead of maintaining X11 support, surely that's their choice - they're mostly volunteers anyway, shouldn't they get to decide what they want to work on?
If other developers still want X11 support, they can branch these session targets and X11 support code off into a separate package and handle maintaining it.
Mmm, im not happy about this. Rn there is a bug affecting amd gpus on gnome wayland that crashes the entire desktop. A fix is hoped to arrive in kernel v6.6, but until then ive been using xorg as a fallback.
I understand its gonna take a while until xorg is fully gone from gnome, but ive grown kind to having such fallback whenever wayland has a nasty issue.
I agree but they're probably not going to and as long as that is the case I can see GNOME users being annoyed that they can't use the app. It's stupid but it's just reality. Discord doesn't give a rats ass about Linux.
It might. I believe the Discord app uses electron, if so you should be able to enable Wayland with some command line flags. The Wayland Arch Wiki page covers this.
Yeah but it's using an ancient version of Electron that they refuse to update. Whenever I open Discord on Wayland I just get a black screen. It doesn't work, and I'm forced to use browser Discord.
