    "Most QWidget-based applications will use shared memory buffers, which work on all hardware. OpenGL and Qt Quick applications need a way to send graphics memory buffers from client to server. There are many options, and not all options work on all hardware."

    Does this mean QtWidgets has no hardware acceleration on Wayland?

    Thank you,

      Hi and welcome to devnet,

      Widgets are not hardware accelerate at all. It has nothing to do with Wayland.
