Hell, Emacs doesn't work in Wayland.

Ah, but that is so niche that it's precious :)

That's not strictly correct. Give the `feature/pgtk` branch from upstream a try, `make` it yourself unless your distro has a binary for it -- that (`make`'d myself) worked for me on Void Linux.

There are also a few forks on GitHub with native wayland patches out there too if `feature/pgtk` doesn't.

I'm already on 28.x/native comp. Is this branch really tested and working well enough without any performance regressions? I read the LWN article about this branch and it did not increase my confidence.

Have you tried the Wayland port? (https://github.com/masm11/emacs :)

Hell does, and way better than on Xorg, less latency. Why do your spread lies? There's a pgtk and native-comp branch.
