Took me a second to figure out that was the Nvidia drivers version number. I was wondering if gnome made another major version shift from 45 to 545 for a second :)
Night light was the big one for me. If I remember correctly they wanted to implement a workaround for night light on nvidia gpus on wayland for KDE Plasma 6. I guess that's kinda superfluous now 😄
Can't watch the video rn so going to be THAT person who asks a question that may be answered in the video....
I have a remote server running PopOS! I use with the gnome DE, I use xrdp to connect to it, have done some hinting in past about ways to use Wayland instead but had no luck. Does this slow decom mean development for Wayland over rdp may be coming soon?
They still haven't added DRM Leasing to Wayland, which is needed for SteamVR to work and considering KDE (has had it for literally years, since 2021) and even COSMIC DE (and it's not even out yet) both already have it, it's just rediculous.
The only thing keeping me on X11 at this point is Slack screen share feature. It doesn't work on Wayland to share the entire screen (specific apps do) and it is entirely Slacks fault here.
X11 also has slightly higher FPS for gaming but not much.
