LXQt 2.1 Promises Experimental Wayland Session, Styling Improvements
The biggest change in LXQt 2.1 will be the experimental Wayland session through the implementation of the lxqt-wayland-session package. Several popular Wayland compositors will be supported by the Wayland session, including Hyprland, KWin, Labwc, Niri, River, Sway, and Wayfire.
However, since it’s tagged as “experimental”, the new Wayland session won’t support some standard LXQt features, including global shortcuts and monitor settings. The same goes for applications that are limited to X11 only, such as Redshift and some clipboard managers.
