Dear feh author,
First of all, thank you for creating and maintaining feh. It has been an indispensable tool for me and many others for years.
I'm writing to humbly ask if you would consider rewriting feh to fully support Wayland.
Currently, there is no software on Wayland that can do what feh does—setting wallpapers, viewing images quickly, and handling simple image tasks in a lightweight, scriptable way. Wayland compositors have their own limited protocols for wallpapers, but nothing comes close to the simplicity, speed, and flexibility of feh.
I understand that rewriting a project to support a different display protocol is a massive undertaking. I know this is not a small request. But feh has become irreplaceable, and the Linux desktop ecosystem desperately needs a Wayland-native equivalent.
Thank you again for your hard work and for everything you've given to the community.
