Yay for audio plugins under Wayland.
Non-embedded type for now, but one step at a time we will get there.
Also, today I answered a question I had for a long time...
If an X11 host running under XWayland calls Wayland-native APIs manually, would it be able to load Wayland-UI based plugins?
The answer is yes - Carla running under Qt xcb "platform" can still show Wayland UIs.
The reverse is also true (Qt wayland "platform" with X11 UIs through XWayland)
Future is bright 🌄
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.
