From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Interesting. I've never experienced this. Back when Wayland wasn't even considered as a main display server yet there were problems with resolution scaling and desktop sizes, but... Straight up not working?
Hmm... But what do you mean with it doesn't work? How doesn't/didn't it work? What prevented you from, say, opening Krita and just dragging the window to the monitor you want?
The window is unresponsive to clicks, so the mouse never works. You can drag it to the main laptop’s screen, but my laptop is small and the external screen is big, so it’s not useful to have such an app opened on a tiny screen. There are workarounds, but having a native Wayland app is just much more useful than hacking around. Last time I checked (was quite a long time ago, up to a year ago) the development wasn’t too focused on Wayland. I hope they’d do at some point, as overall Krita is good.
