Linux Wayland Support
As you probably know, Linux has moved from xorg to wayland. It would be important to support this new protocol in order to be a viable alternative.

For what I've tested, the QT versions needs to be updated to be compatible with HiDPI though.

Re: Linux Wayland Support
i'm using the version 1.8.2 on linux with wayland and plasma 6.2.2, qt 6.7.2
But, the user interface is waaay too small,
the fonts in the tree-view on a 4K screen are barely readable
the only fonts i can configure are those of the main UI (view > info > font)
In previous versions, this wasn't a problem at all....?
Any help on this?

Expand the attached image to the largest possible and you see that it isn't a poor quality screen shot it's actually the xnview interface being blurry.
