minus-squarelnxtx@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19arrow-down1·4 days agoI don’t say that. Rather it’s just a trivia.
minus-squaretrevor@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·3 days agoTotally fair. I’m curious to see if anyone else may have reasons why it might be suboptimal.

minus-squareshekau@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoWhy on Flathub it says that it “uses legacy windowing system”, but there is granted permission to use Wayland socket in manifest?
minus-squareSteveTech@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8arrow-down1·3 days agoProbably because there’s also permission to use the X11 socket.
minus-squareshekau@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoNo, its certainly not because of that. Many apps have both permissions simultaneously and theres no warning. In this case X11 is used as a fallback if wayland is not used.

minus-squareshekau@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoOk, but why there’s a warning on flathub that it uses legacy windowing system
minus-squaretekato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoBecause it will always use X11 unless you tell it not to.
