It’s surprisingly possible (and easy) too… a little bit of tinkering with X11’s compositor API would probably do the trick.

IDK about Wayland tho :/

You could do it in Wayland, too, it's just that every single Wayland app would have to re-implement the rotation and rendering themselves.

Wayfire seems perfectly capable of rotating apps without them being aware of it
