On: Krita 4.0 – A painting app for cartoonists, illustrators, and concept artists

[floatboth]

But I don't use it for painting with a tablet! I just want to crop screenshots and draw arrows on them. On a HiDPI screen, without the whole app being blurry.

Why not provide a --no-tablets-i-just-want-wayland option that would not force the X backend?

Because that would be a very silly thing to spend time on? Time taken away from working on things that Krita is meant for?

X11 is a silly thing to spend time on :P

So turns out it's easy to turn off X11 in the build files https://github.com/myfreeweb/krita-wayland/commit/8ab43e3e1c... and it does work on Wayland now!
