Streaming games using Sunshine (the gamestream implementation) now works a lot better on nVidia/wayland (github.com)

Yes, yes, I know, buy AMD, but I already have nVvdia to use CUDA, but this new patch on the nightly branch (on arch, you can use sunshine-git but with my patch here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sunshine-git) finally makes it so that I don't have to "dual boot" into X11 to get game streaming at full performance.

Prior to this, wayland-based streamers had to make a round-trip through CPU ram, and now it stays within GPU ram and thus we can stream 4k on nvidia/Wayland!

i dunno if they could implement a reimplementation of nvidias protocol on the amd driver bundle on windows. i mean legally, could this have issues?

and mesa is not for streaming software, its for drivers and sunshine is not a driver

its already on flatpak, so on most distros repos by default
