Wayland vs Xorg be like (sh.itjust.works)

Yes, I made it using a laptop's trackpad, how could you tell?

[Image description: Panel 1: Young man confidently walking, his vest bears the Wayland logo. Behind him is a grunt with the Gnome logo on his face holding a katana. The young man says: "It's high time you retire, old man!" Panel 2: An old man with a long beard and the Xorg logo on his chest is sitting on a throne and petting a rat, the XFCE mascot. He says: "It's still a hundred years too early for you to defeat me!" ]

You absolutely can restart Wayland. The command to do so is just specific to whichever DE or WM you're using as they have their own Wayland Compositor implementation.

DEs should implement good commands for that

  • start session from tty (example startplasma-wayland)
  • logout (example qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer logout 0 3 3)
  • restart wayland server (example kwin_wayland --replace)

Some of those are completely undiscoverable
