TIL - Linux supports tilted monitors... apparently 22° is best

Not sure I could ever live with that - anyone able to test if multi monitors works?

Wayland devs, wake up and implement the features we truly need!
The biggest hurdle is getting shit past the GNOME developers. Wayland could implement a protocol that cures leukemia, and they'd still raise a stink about use-cases because it doesn't touch other types of cancer.
Doesn't need a protocol, just compositor support. Unless you want windows to be aware of being rendered at an angle, that is.
Also I do wonder how broken that stuff is under X as the WM protocols that I remember definitely assumed axis-aligned monitor and windows.
They'll end up spending more time arguing about it than implementing it
Technically that's compositor level stuff, and it probably can even treat it like an actual diagonal display and prevent windows from going there and everything.
This is a good example of why some of the protocols are taking so long. Once finalized, it'll probably somehow also be capable of handling... that.
With an accelerometer and a compositor written for that can probably even keep it level in real time. Tilt monitor and windows rotate to match automatically.
