Wayland By Default in 2026.1 EAP (blog.jetbrains.com)

Starting from version 2026.1, IntelliJ-based IDEs will run natively on Wayland in supported desktop configurations. This follows Wayland’s ascendance to the position of primary display server across contemporary Linux distributions.

By making this change in our EAP releases first, we hope to be able to give more Linux users the opportunity to try the native Wayland mode in their IDE, gather their feedback, and prepare more comprehensively for the general rollout in one of the upcoming major versions.

Could you use windows intellij and docker instead?

I could probably make something work, but I don't see a reason for it at the moment. My current setup works pretty well. It would be nice if Jetbrains started fixing stuff instead of just throwing new broken features onto the pile but that's just not gonna happen.
