Wayland is the future! :D

mmmm but isn't 100% functional....

have been switched to wayland entirely now, faster than X server

I use so Fedora so have been on wayland for some time. If komorebi doesn't support Wayland then it's not an option for me. Other distros are heading same direction so needs to be supported

I would love to add support for Wayland (I actually tried to), but due to limitations with its API, I couldn't achieve the following:

• Wayland overrides the (wallpaper-mode) that Komorebi uses and treats it as a normal window.
• The screen size is also messed up. When getting the screen size through GDK, I get the correct one running under X. When running under Wayland, I get an incorrect size.

Unless the limitations/issues change, I can't add support for Wayland :(

are there bug reports for them? if so it's worth linking to them

Ahh, this is why Komorebi shows up as an application in GNOME on Fedora and not as a background.

Other background applications for wlroots-compatible compositors, like swaybg, use the wlr_layer_shell protocol (using the 'wallpaper' namespace), to properly set the window as the desktop background.

Its not every wayland compositor, but at least it includes sway and hyprland
