Hello, I use Gnome Classic (with Debian that means Xorg, not Wayland) so I am definitely not familiar (nor knowledgeable) with Wayland. But am I wrong? I was thinking that one could start a Wayland compositor from a TTY (so, also from a script), with a particular configuration if she/he wishes, and launch GUI programs in this environment? For example: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wayland https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/497647/start-a-qt-wayland-application-on-top-of-weston-on-startup
