I’ve been on Wayland for the past two years exclusively (Nvidia).
I thought it was okay for the most part but then I had to switch to an X session recently. The experience felt about the same. Out of curiosity, I played a couple of games and realized they worked much better. Steam doesn’t go nuts either.
Made me think maybe people aren’t actually adopting it that aggressively despite the constant coverage in the community. And that maybe I should just go back.
Every update of plasma I switch to Wayland so far my record is 1 week before running into a deal breaker issue.
Though Plasma six is so close to working for me. The only issues I’m getting on wayland is flickering in games, an issue where some windows don’t show up on the task bar, awful screen tearing when using two monitors of different resolutions, keyboard lag.
Same here. I’m on garuda dragonized, and tried out Wayland for a few days and everything you mentioned happened to me. Throw in some mouse focus issues for extra fun!
