What’s the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven’t found anything useful on the internet, so I’m asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.

      I think they’re saying that it happens when you run one app as root, then you can’t copy-paste to other apps. It’s not a problem when running graphical apps as your normal user account.

          Copy-paste should work with Wayland, so there is probably some way to fix that problem if you decide to give it another try, at least if you password manager is open source

      I can’t copy & paste between the password manager and other apps, so I have to type out all these long, randomly-generated passwords, and often there’s not an option to see what characters I’m typing, so I don’t know I made a typo until the very end.
