    I guess you aren’t using Wayland. It’s abysmal with Wayland. Especially electron apps. They just flicker and crash.

      No, I’m on Kubuntu, it doesn’t use Wayland.

        Pretty sure Wayland is installed by default and maybe even enabled by default on new installs.

        On the login screen there should be a button to switch between x11 and Wayland.

          Oh yeah there is a button to switch on the login screen, but X11 is the default and I never saw a reason to switch the default.

            Personally, I wouldn’t say “it doesn’t use Wayland” when it absolutely can with a single mouse click and it works great.

              Yes, it can, and by default it doesn’t use it.
