The gnome implementation that I’m forced to use is god damn awful. This whole eventbus implementation is so bad, it misses events and doesn’t always register key-up, when I’m switching workspaces. I do it a lot, and the key gets stuck spamming the same letter, because it didn’t register key up!! Hell sometimes it doesn’t register keydown, super annoying when writing passwords.
Random crashes of gnome happens more often than I would like to admit, and all that you’ve been working on is gone aswell. What a garbage design, why the fuck should the wm own the processes, I swear the wayland people live on a another planet.
And the whole permissions thing to ensure privacy, mf this is linux, stop making me do workarounds for shit that you won’t allow, because you haven’t implemented the correct support for it.
I’m running Ubuntu 24.04, thing fucking sucks, I’m forced by work. Dude x11, just worked, like Wayland solved anything at all.
Using the latest Ubuntu lts is company policy if you want to use Linux. All support for x11 is removed from gnome, you can’t even change x11 anymore. I switch workspaces all the time, like web browser in one, dev env and terminal, so constantly switching, 50% of the time it will miss the key up event from your keyboard and it’s registering that you are holding the key down.
Gnome randomly crashes, for instance sometimes clicking on a link that someone sent you, just randomly crashes gnomes, happened yesterday. So all the processes you started via gnome is gone, you need to reopen all your tools again, happens at least 6 times a week.
Sometimes gdm doesn’t work, so you can’t login, you have to open another tty and reset gdm in the other session. It’s so bad, never had these issues before in x11, sure there were bugs, but not annoying bugs.
Driver issues or not, it’s annoying as fuck. Gnome developers (redhat or whoever sells support for gnome) implementing the display server, gg.
