First post on lemmy I dont really know how to use the ui sorry if the post ends up looking weird
Could you elaborate what you mean by "doesn't have Wayland"?
Krita works fine on Wayland (I just finished using it to scribble out a comic strip, in fact), but is there something specific you're finding that is broken?
I think they might be referring to krita using xwayland and not having native Wayland support
It's about colors. I'm not an expert, but there is something about professional color stuff that is still in the works to migrate to Wayland.
And of course for Krita it's quite crucial that colours are right.
I believe it's mostly drawing tablet support in Qt and in turn porting to Qt6 that's holding native Wayland builds back.
It requires a Qt Toolkit for UI upgrade and developers prefer to not constantly be spending labor on chasing the current version of every dependency when they could be doing more artsy things.
AFAIK Krita 6.0 plans on bringing Wayland support & the upgrade.
cuz X is 40 years old and its usage should be avoided (cuz of screen tearing,security reasons etc..)
