I thought wayland was supposed to improve security. Were the past 18 years a lie?
This has literally nothing to do with wayland.
This is such a dumb comment. Jesus.
“I thought passwords were meant to improve security! So how come I got a virus???”
Bro does not know what a display server does
They should be more specific. This is just false advertising.
Um, this is like saying full disk encryption is false advertising, because it doesn’t prevent people blowing up your apartment complex. LOL.
Sorry, dude, I cannot resist. No hate to you, we all need to start from somewhere.
Wayland isn’t a product. You’re gonna have to get your mind out of capitalism to understand the free software community.
>muh capitalism
Ok commie
You’re literally on a communist instance of Lemmy.
This is different from the Wayland security model, as Wayland restricts the ability for clients to modify and read from other clients arbitrarily. This is an extension to a Wayland compositor, and as all extensions do, it contains code which runs on your system. Any code, unless sandboxed, can access your filesystem no matter if it’s run under Wayland, X11, or no windowing system at all for that matter.
It is not related to Wayland or the compositor in any way. This is a plasmashell extension.
Similar caveats do apply to KWin scripts and effects though
