"Fractional scaling? Seat management? What is all this cruft? Let's start over from scratch and This Time We'll Get It Right!"


All of that things that weren't truly handler right by wayland anyway, thanks to pushing everyone and their pet hamster into implementing complete display servers :P

I find especially funny how Wayland attempted to have "tear free done right"... and the expected display path (GPU accelerated) turned out to either involve 1 or more frame delay, or tearing because Wayland protocol didn't support explicit sync on render finish.


it's good for the economy!
