  • I’ve used this neovim keybind for years:

    vim.keymap.set({'n', 'x'}, 'gy', '"+y') -- copy
    vim.keymap.set({'n', 'x'}, 'gp', '"+p') -- paste 
    

    I was able to copy/paste between nvim and other applications on sway, Hyprland, Niri and KDE on Wayland.

    The global clipboard register + should also work in modern regular vim afaik.


  • You must use a different Wayland than I do.

    I play competitive multiplayer games with VRR on a 4k240 monitor in a tiling wm with direct scanout. Color management support (HDR, 10bit, anything beyond 8bit sRGB) is also coming along.

    I’ve never had a better working setup than this. Everything on X was painful. Even just getting vsync to work properly used to be tricky in some cases.

    I agree that wayland does miss features compared to X but a lot of them are conscious design decisions and don’t affect me personally. For example running graphical applications remotely through e.g. SSH or the complete lack of security allowing any application to easily read my keyboard input.
