Howdy, folks! Doing X11 forwarding over ssh has been my go to way to access graphical applications on my headless server. With X11 being deprecated with its many security issues, I was slightly bummed since I thought I’d have to setup VNC or RDP.

Low and behold I stumbled across Waypipe! Made my god damn day.

    I’m also glad to see Wayland tools maturing. The hand wringing about lack of X forwarding was always FUD and a nonsense reason to cling to the fiction that X works well over a socket and justify all the shitty compromises X made to remain compatible with it.
