Has there been any news what the long term plans of Gamescope (Steam Deck Compositor)? They are building pretty heavily on top of xwayland, so wondering if they’ll make the switch to native Wayland game sessions at some point…

Gamescope should be wayland based, it uses xwayland for wine/proton games

I am aware it’s Wayland based. But it’s using xwayland for literally everything by design at the moment. There is not even a way to run Wayland native applications currently.
