Hey guys, what are the pros and cons to wayland if I intend to use my PC for gaming + others?

Comparisons to X?

General impressions?

Your advice on if I should use it or stick with X?

My PC parts are arriving soon, and while Ive been a linux user since 2016 its the first time I intend to fully main drive linux, so I guess im just looking for as much information as I can get on it.

Feel free to post links to articles or anything that will answer if you prefer, we’re on a link aggregator after all ;) and I dont mind reading.

Thanks in advance :)

    I dont plan on using nvidia anytime soon so thats not an issue. As for tools, while ive been a long time linux user, this is the first time ill really be able to truly daily-drive/main a linux distro (previously my desktop was Windows and LTs were linux). So as for little tools, I dont mind either as Ill really start collecting/building them up now

      Neither was I but with recent AI developments and those being a lot better supported on CUDA than AMD’s ROCm it is a concern for some.

        Im not aware of these, but either way I dont really dabble with AI so I doubt it would seriously affect me, at least for a very long time
