As I have switched to Wayland full time, and faced some computability problem, I think adding this to wiki might help other users.
Qt applications support Wayland since Qt5, but they don't use Wayland protocol by default. But, some manual intervention is needed.
qt5-wayland
orqt6-wayland
application from your distribution of choice. You can see a reference example in Arch Linux packages, here and here. Arch used qt6 to buildqBittorrent
, and thus I needed,qt6-wayland
.QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland
. Simply, after completing the setp 1, you can run this in the command,QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland qbittorrent
and have native Wayland support on Linux.Reference link.
