For those wanting to build a Wayland-only Linux desktop experience without carrying any aging X11 baggage, GNOME 47 will be able to optionally offer Wayland-only support without carrying X11/X.Org support. This Mutter merge request landed today that allows compiling Mutter with X11 support disabled. That landed today along with this GNOME Shell merge request for being able to disable X11 support too.

    Xclicker is a GUI autoclicker. I heard of a command line tool for Wayland, but it didn’t seem to exactly be an autoclicker, and I don’t really like command line tools in general.

      Oh I absolutely get it. But I guess someone will eventually end up making a GUI for ydotool (or so I hope). Alternatively, there is this (Wayland support is WIP): https://github.com/RMPR/atbswp

      When I say I get it, I mean there was a time I kept Xorg around only so I can use PyAutoGUI (I no longer need it but if I did, I’d have probably created wrapper scripts to allow PyAutoGUI to call grim instead of scrot when on Wayland, or something like that).
