This is the sort of honest discourse we should be having in the community. The recent advances are nothing short of amazing, and I can play tons of great games with my windows friends, but there are some games, that left me, and sometimes them with terrible experiences.

Nothing like investing over an hour into a game with friends only to crash due to some Linux specific issue.

Nothing like investing over an hour into a game with friends only to crash due to some Linux specific issue.

There's a feature called Compositor Handoffs coming to Wayland that'll make it so crashes will never be a problem again. This feature can do 3 things :

  • Act as a seamless crash recovery system where the exact state of the application is restored.
  • Act as a fully robust hibernation system where the exact state of the application is restored after full device poweroff for an indefinite amount of time.
  • Pass the application and it's state between supported Desktop Environments and Window Managers on the fly.

We happen to have a working prototype rn, it just needs the kinks worked out.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
