The correct choice is obvious.

@compositor definitely X till getting the name of the active window in focus can be obtained without going through a bazillion DE’s - if they support that at all imo. I’d think that if we cared about accessibility at all this would have been added already.

Besides being non-functional in many regards Wayland is great & only half as old as X at this point.

@benreaves active window?

@compositor the better approach imho is to implement it in Wayland in a way that allows a more direct path to 3rd party apps if given the permission to do so by the user. Otherwise 3rd party app developers will have to write separate support for each & every DE a user might use.

Macs have a privacy & security are for apps to be granted permissions for things like automation & file access. I don’t understand why we can’t do something similar.
