Is wayland ready for gaming with nivida RTX series? I have RTX 3060 Ti. I wouldn’t mind messing with it to make it work if I have to.

Would want to use a window manager like sway or river.

    Nvidia or not, stick with X11 until you have a reason to use Wayland.

    I need Wayland for my packaging work, and one of my devices requires Wayland so I use it for that and it’s a decent experience, but Wayland still has drawbacks (weaker automation API, some programs still don’t work) so I wouldn’t recommend switching off X11 unless you have a reason.

      The only reason I have is the weak security model of X, and maybe early-adopters syndrome

      Yeah I agree. People are fast to jump on the bandwagon but there are still plenty of steps to be made to get it even on par with X11. Ofc if it works for you that’s great but it doesn’t work for everyone.
