Wayland support is here!

We would like to announce experimental Wayland support for Synergy on Linux. Wayland is a replacement for the X11 window system protocol and architecture.

Requirements

libei (distros that support libei)
>= GNOME 46 or KDE Plasma 6.1

Special thanks

Peter Hutterer (@whot) and Olivier Fourdan (@ofourdan) from Red Hat for their work on implementing Wayland support. Peter Hutterer's work on libei and libportal is fundamental for Wayland support for Synergy.
