Shouldn't the article be called "Wine on Wayland" instead of "Wayland on Wine" then? I was really confused by the headline.



Agreed. This naming approach reminds me very much of the Windows Subsystem for Linux.


To me that name makes sense. It is a Windows Subsystem that adds support for Linux


To myself, Windows Subsystem for Linux sounded like a Windows subsystem for Linux.


I think that one's motivated by trademark rules.


It’s a typo, the original article is correct


They just want their name to come first. ;) Besides, it has a nice ring to it! wink wink
