The major feature for this release is native Wayland support. This might well be the last program I use that still required XWayland. Should mean that HiDPI with Wine is improved significantly as well, especially given there have been improvements added there as well.
Note that you need to unset the environment variable DISPLAY since it will still prefer the X11 backend if both are available. Something like this should work:
DISPLAY= wine <application>
Wine X anyone lol
Make that joke again and I'll drown your X in WINE! >:V
Lol I deserve it X is so cringe
Found musk!
I did read the WINE X as a joke to MacOS X but it seems that Musk has claimed that letter with very high success.
Ah, the good old days of pirating Linux software.
Anyone try photoshop with it yet? Its the only software without decent linux alternative other than the online photopea (krita and gimp arent there yet)
krita isn't meant for photo manipulation and will never be, but gimp is a fair comparison
