Electron recently switched to Wayland by default on Linux, bringing dozens of popular desktop apps along with it. Here's what changed and how it affects developers and users.

    now to wait out the years for old game launchers and wine to follow suit, and years more for proton to get it…

            Then you’re either not using the native wayland driver, or you’re running apps that don’t use cross-process rendering. Try Ubisoft Connect or Jagex Launcher. Ubisoft Connect just displays a tiny window with nothing in it, but is probably supposed to show an error message, and Jagex launcher just shows a black screen, according to this comment.

            So unless you use a wine version patched to include the cross-process rendering code that was apparently already developed by Collabora (which I think is located here), you’re not gonna get these apps to work.
