### Permission Controls
Desktop environments (DEs) that support the [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org) display protocol are [more secure](https://lwn.net/Articles/589147) than those that only support X11. However, not all DEs take full advantage of Wayland's architectural security improvements.
For example, GNOME has a notable edge in security compared to other DEs by implementing permission controls for third-party software that tries to [capture your screen](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3943). That is, when a third-party application attempts to capture your screen, you are prompted for your permission to share your screen with the app.

Many alternatives don't provide these same permission controls yet,[^1] while some are waiting for Wayland to implement these controls upstream.[^2]
Desktop environments that support the [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org) display protocol are [more secure](https://lwn.net/Articles/589147) than those that only support X11. Moreover, we *generally* recommend installing and using applications which are sandboxed such as those obtained via **Flatpak**. Flatpak supports the [`security-context-v1`](https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/pull/4920) protocol and the ability to filter D-Bus protocols, which allow Flatpak to properly identify apps for the purpose of sandboxing them through permission controls.[^1] Conversely, applications outside sandboxes are free to perform privileged actions such as capturing your screen, either by [overwriting the portal permission store](https://invent.kde.org/plasma/xdg-desktop-portal-kde/-/issues/7#note_1112260), or [making use of privileged Wayland protocols](https://github.com/swaywm/sway/pull/7648#issuecomment-2507730794).
