@joekamprad so this boots to EOS Xfce, then you install Sway or does it boot to Sway then you run the installer? Thanks!
Boots to xfce as always.

Hmm. I can reproduce this too. May need to edit the setup and write the env variables straight to /etc/environment. Thank you very much spotting this! I will check if anyone else can reproduce too. @BONK or @joekamprad, @Shjim.

Sorry
systemd will load environment variables from ~/.config/environment.d/*.conf see environment.d(5) and https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/Wayland/SessionStart.
exporting it from .profile works for @BONK and thata the easiet way for the user too to interact with it without root problems. Is firefox wayland for you? about:suppport then scroll down the window protocal
is wayland here without need to change anything

Hmmmm. @dbarronoss can I see your .profile when you are free?
Same here. I used the installer to install firefox.
I don’t use a .profile, I’m running zsh as my shell. .profile is only bash. Due to the multiplicity of shells, that is not a suitable place to set environment values, it also will not get sourced if running from a display manager.

.zprofile then ?
I do not have any environment variables (aka MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1) set that would in any way effect the FF startup. None were automagically installed, nor have I manually changed them. I know how…just pointing out it’s not done. And also saying that is NOT a dependable/good way to do it as a rollout (at least imo).
I haven’t tried it, but /etc/environment may be a much better solution (needs testing). That may cause issues if they also run a X11 environment, which is why I suggested a binary compiled to default to Wayland (could also be uniquely named like firefox_wayland…but please I don’t really want to stand on a podium and try to teach my grandmother to suck eggs…with all due respect, I don’t know the best way, just throwing ideas out).

Ok, replying to myself marks stage 2 of insanity, but here goes.
Placing the variable in /etc/environment seems to be safe for both wayland and x11 environments (tested with I3). That might indeed be the best way if having the environment variable defined doesn’t break running under X11, which it seems to not do.

I use zsh too. And stuff I put in .profile still exports as a env variable.
I didn’t know this! Something useful to put in the WIKI! Thank you!
Did you do this…
cp .profile ~/.profile
from the cloned dictionary?
