seems like everything moves to wayland, so having no wayland support for juce means that there is not really a linux support out of the box for juce?  
E.g. if you have a fresh ubuntu installation, which is the most common linux OS, drag and drop is not working:

> I noticed that drag’n drop of files does not work when running a JUCE app on wayland (which is the default on ubuntu 21.10 it seems). JUCE apps do not notice dragged files from nautilus. I assume this is something without a solution, it is just a limitation of wayland, right ?
