    Alright, so what else is needed until Wine on Wayland becomes as good as Wine on Xorg? Is there a checklist, or something? What’s left until Wayland gaming is as good as, if not better than Xorg gaming?

      With this last merge you can start playing already. Except for shooters, there are a few more merges left to fix the edge cases. Around 4 or 5 merge requests

        Wait, so It’s actually happening? Wayland gaming will be a thing soon? Plasma 6, releasing in the first half of 2024, has ironed out all but 1 of its “Wayland showstoppers”, actively working on the last one, as well as many bugfixes. XFCE 4.20, with Wayland support, is releasing in late 2024. Cinnamon, MATE, Pantheon, and Enlightenment, have all started working on Wayland support and will likely show early stages of it in 2024. AND WINE will hopefully be fully Wayland-ready in 2024. 2024 will be the year of Wayland!!!

          Wayland usage with Wine is already finished. The dev (from collabora) is slowly merging the code to Wine. Only a few pieces left.
