Interesting! Could I already run another compositor on it, like Niri, and start playing already?
No; Wayland is also a protocol, and Niri relies on that protocol, so Niri doesn't bypass the need for Wayland support.
Right but if they finish Wayland support, I could run Niri and Steam, basically, right? And Slack and do screen sharing and whatnot.
Oh, I thought by "already" you meant right now. I would expect that you can use any Wayland-compatible compositor once their Wayland support is complete, yeah.
Not sure about Steam.
Ah, oops! I see how you would think that ๐ My bad! Yes, I meant after their support is finished. Thanks!
