Here's to hoping all Linux apps follow!

Also one thing i really like about wayland is that it makes no assumptions, the seat can be anything and even change. So a proper wayland application should work on both desktops and mobile.

It is kinda strange... Gajim is incorporating all sorts or mobile first UI elements, while its devs insist on it being only a desktop client with no plan to support mobile form factors.

I suspect this will result in an atrocity of an UI like Gnome, which looks like a mobile UI, but isn't actually usable as one.

when did they last insist that? possibly they changed their mind, until not too long ago there was not much linux phones out there to spend development time on.

Quite recently on their MUC, like a few months ago.
