5·
2 months agoThe Wayland spec doesn’t allow for clients to arbitrarily get clipboard data under typical conditions. Since most applications these days are running under Wayland, it should be that copying to the clipboard isn’t exposed to X11 clients most of the time (only when copying from or pasting into XWayland).
Part of problem is that being able to keep a copy of a game indefinitely doesn’t mean you “own” it. You just have a (revokable) license to use it within the conditions of the license, as with almost all software you use and media you consume.
When companies say you don’t own games, they mean this: you’ve never owned games you bought.
