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 tried for a bit and it was great, no complaints. However, I was having issues getting NixOS set up as quickly as I would like, so I went back to Pop!_OS. I’m looking forward to the next release of Pop, which will have full Wayland by default.

      I’ve been running wayland on popOS for a year now. Works great. It’s already installed, you just have to into a file and either delete a line or change false to true. Takes about 2 minutes.

        I’ve thought about making the leap, but this is a work machine so I want to make sure it’s rock solid.
