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’ve switched nearly all my computers to Linux with wayland in the past 2 years with the last device coming over in the last couple of months.

    I run a headless fedora/kde /wayland gaming desktop (with a nvidia GPU) which I use exclusively over steam links dotted around the house. That took a bit of tinkering tbh but flawless operation since. Edit: Turns out its actually still on Xorg. Still some work to do here getting this moved over. I forget why I didn’t stick but must’ve been some combination of headless and steam link streams

    I use arch/hyprland on my daily driver laptop and arch/sway on my work laptop.

    The wifes laptop is also fedora/KDE on wayland.
