Niri 25.08 Wayland Compositor Introduces xwayland-satellite Support
Niri 25.08 is out this week as the newest version of this scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor
Niri refrained from supporting XWayland directly due to a lot of integration work needed, a preference to cater the code just to Wayland, Niri lacks a global coordinate system needed by X11, and various other design decisions as well as limitations. Niri 25.08 also introduces screen reader support, modal exit configuration, improvements to its screenshot UI, screenfasting fixes, reading the keyboard layout from systemd-localed, ext-workspace Wayland protocol support, and a variety of other enhancements. For more information on Niri 25.08 or to download this scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor, visit the project's GitHub.
