Today I give thanks to the programmers and coders of gkrellm. This nifty panel program works flawlessly, even on Wayland display servers.
Gkrellm was born way before Wayland was even an idea
It seems trivial to spawn properly on an Xorg session over ssh, but a program like pavucontrol erroneously spawns itself on the local display of the machine instead of the remote display, when invoked in an xsession. A bug which I need to report and will of course be squashed by those coders.
Gkrellm even keeps different configurations when spawned from different machines. Gkrellm is a trusted valuable tool, which uses a minimum amount of network resources meaning that you can even run it over the Internet when you have a metered connection
