Ok, but nobody explained what the equivalent of "ssh -X" was supposed to be with wayland.

Oh, cool. I've been looking for that for ages. Thank a lot!
Does this work well with X11 -> Wayland communication? Or do both computers need to be Wayland?
after a brief glance it looks like it, but that's the same case as x over ssh. otherwise there's things like vnc that wouldn't care what each side is running
It doesn't exist as far as I know.

It's such a niche feature that I bet most people under 30yrs never heard or used that it's become too cringey that everyone keeps mentioning it.
But there's the solution already mentioned.
I'd just like that some people would look a bit at themselves and realize that almost nobody wants or cares about that single weird feature. There are many remote desktop solutions more known to end users that need that kind of interaction.
Actual Unix users care. Maybe people that just jumped ship from Microsoft don't, but I think that's just because they don't know what's possible and how convenient it is.
I have also jumped ship from MS, but it is actually a cool feature. I don't use it that frequently, but a few times a month, yeah.
