Ubuntu 25.10 "Questing Quokka" removes Xorg-based sessions, fully embracing Wayland as the new default for GNOME.

      No, thanks to XWayland.

        but it doesn’t work perfectly, xeyes through XWayland only follows your cursor if it’s hovering another XWayland window

        which makes it a fun way to see which apps use XWayland tho!

      KDE has you covered. Someone made an applet that works on Wayland too: https://github.com/luisbocanegra/plasma-cursor-eyes
