Wayland

Wayland is a display server protocol and the successor to the X11 windowing system. The compositor is the display server; clients render their own windows and talk to it directly. Legacy X11 apps run through XWayland.

Basic usage

# check the current session type
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE      # "wayland" or "x11"

# hint an Electron/Chromium app to use Wayland
app --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland

Run Obsidian in Wayland

OBSIDIAN_USE_WAYLAND=11 obsidan -enable-features=UseOzonePlatform -ozone-platform=wayland
