On the Road to Pure Go X11 GUIs
&gt; I keep thinking about Wayland. It&#x27;s really a double-edged sword. Aside from my pet peeve that it by-design blocks, for inane security reasons, my favourite feature of sdtui, which is X11 selection stealing, it also offers no mode that would work over a network—for example, to transfer picture data you can only use EGL or shared memory.<p>&quot;it by-design blocks, for inane security reasons&quot; or &quot;for inane security reasons, my favourite feature of sdtui, which is X11 selection stealing&quot;. Either way, ik curious what the inane security reasons are. Also, why is blocking bad in Wayland?<p>It seems like one of the biggest complaints about Wayland is that it doesn&#x27;t work over a network.
 Does anyone actually work that way? I&#x27;ve tried it a few times, and every time I tried it it turned out to be unusably slow.
