On Linux, it compiles with support for both [X Window System](https://www.x.org/wiki/) and [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org/). This is great because it makes your app compatible with just about any desktop environment or window manager. In the [SDL3 documentation](https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL3/README-wayland) it says that > Wayland is a replacement for the X11 window system protocol and architecture and is favored over X11 by default in SDL3 -However, if your compositor does not implement the `wp_fifo_manager_v1` protocol SDL will fall back to XWayland.
