1. How much time do you think it will take the developers to implement Wayland?
  2. Will something like plank be adapted to cinnamon Wayland?
  3. Can I make panels in cinnamon floating like KDE or gnome? I didn’t find any info on that.

    1. They have an experimental Wayland session already. It mostly works except for some pretty important stuff…I also haven’t seen development on it for a long while.
    2. I think this is almost a 100% no.
    3. I tried to implement that myself. Making them shorter than the screen is easy. Making them appear above the edge of the screen is hard, but not impossible - the code is in JavaScript and the logic is kind of disjoint across multiple files and stuff depends on panels being at the edge of the screen - I didn’t do it in the end because it was too much effort for something I didn’t want that much.
