@leo it does involve x11 forwarding (since it is rendered on windows 7) but those windows are launched and managed by gnome. even paperwm works!
@49016@catgirl.cloud feel like the op implies its actually running dwm.exe in wine or something as a wayland compositor

@49016@catgirl.cloud if/when the windows virtio-gpu driver is ever upstream a thing ive wanted to do for a while is kind of the inverse of this. proxy windows to the host wayland with gpu acceleration the same as a linux guest would have

it saw another windows aero theme for kde. that's cute but it thinks gnome also deserves some love too
anyways here's a gnome desktop composited by the real aero dwm.exe from win7
@49016@mastodon.catgirl.cloud what did this one do. how did it do it. what the fuck.

(before anyone asks: these windows are actually managed by gnome and rendered by dwm.exe)
tl;dr of how this clusterfuck works: this is effectively just x11 forwarding an x server from windows to linux. the fun part is a) making gnome run with an already existing window manager (namely dwm.exe lol), b) making gnome run over x11 forwarding (it is Not a fan, last time it tried running gnome on windows this is what broke it and made it quit trying), and c) actually ripping out parts of the gnome compositor again to make dwm instead of gnome render window decorations to achieve ✨aero gnome✨

@49016@mastodon.catgirl.cloud thats somehow worse than I thought

@xerz fun fact! windows 10+ does wayland
windows 7 does not which made this especially fun

@49016 did this one ever tell of the kernel developer it knows who searched for a window manager for Linux and then found windows 11 (or was it 10?). He wrote some custom driver and all to make it fast. Sadly never got him to write a blog post about that project

also, to prove that yes, gnome really manages these windows: here's paperwm, the scrolling wm gnome extension, running on windows 7 (albeit really slow because starting paperwm completely jams the x11 tunnel for some reason lmao)

I'm uncomfortable with using language that evokes slavery in the context of AI/LLMs. Actually, not just for AI/LLMs, but for any subject at all.
