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.

    I can’t use Wayland until this xwayland Nvidia bug is fixed, which is a shame because I think that’s the last thing holding Nvidia users back. I tried the new Plasma 6 recently and for the most part it was great until I tried gaming and hit that bug. I tried different older and newer beta driver versions but it was more or less the same bug.

      Seconding this. XWayland is literally unusable with my 3060 Ti, while I’ve been having very few problems with X11. Hopefully explicit sync support is added before Fedora 40 drops
