Audio production on Linux, using proprietary audio plugins, is somewhat funny/interesting to see in the context of security.
I mean, there are a lot of recent efforts to put applications in containers, sandboxes, lots of talking about X11 being unsafe vs Wayland...
And then users just download and run arbitrary binary code from the internet 😅
Nothing against those that do this, it is just a bit funny to see from a security perspective.
@amadeus I wouldnt be so sure...
My tests on https://github.com/falkTX/wayland-audio-plugin-test/ show it is possible, and based on that I could easily support wayland UIs in Carla (not the S1 spec though, please let's not do their proposal as it would complicate hosts job way too much)
afaik that repo contains the very first LV2 UI under wayland. granted it does nothing useful, but it does load with its own custom LV2 UI type
@amadeus also note that pugl (used by DPF and a few others) kinda already supports wayland, the code is "just" not public yet because it is also not ready and we need host support first
I think next year we will have our first LV2 wayland UIs, loadable within at least Carla and Qtractor.
