You could run the game under Wayland before, but it was not default behavior nor provided as an option.

I used to force the game to use the Wayland version 3 years ago to work around a bug in GLFW that caused inputs to be ignored under X11, a video demonstrating the issue here: https://youtu.be/8h5Jif6zyDs.

But then Minecraft updated to use a fixed version of GLFW so I stopped needing to do so.

I ran 1.21.10 and snapshot 25w34a. With xeyes, I was able to confirm that 1.21.10 was using Xwayland and 25w34a was using Wayland.

As it stands today, sudo-rs is the default sudo implementation on Ubuntu 25.10, and uutils’ coreutils has mostly replaced the GNU implementation, with a few exceptions, many of which will be resolved by releases in the coming weeks. These diversions back to the existing implementations demonstrate that stability and resilience are more important than “hype” in our approach: I expect us to have completed the migration during the next cycle, but not before the tools are ready.

Yes. They also reverted some of the still unfinished stuff to use the Gnu versions until the Rust versions are ready.

I do keep it on for touchpads, they are too small to used without it. But with a mouse with proper hand space, it’s just more consistent to have it off.

Maybe Secureblue?

That also comes with its own hardened browser based on GrapheneOS’s.

And if you don’t go with Secureblue and its browser, I’d recommend using a browser Chromium based, probably Brave. I know that’s a controversial choice, but in terms of security and ad blocking, it’s one of the better options. And disable JIT for V8.

Yes. However, it’s still very notable that distros like Ubuntu have gone from 40+% to under 10%.
