Anyone has been using Wayland with zero issues? (lemm.ee)

Is it just me, or are you folks running Wayland with no issues? I've even forgotten I was on Wayland until I looked at the settings the other day. I have all AMD, btw. I have zero issues so far. Anyone else?

There are issues with some games for sure. You'll tab in/out at the wrong times (usually loading screens) and this guarantees Wayland will crash and restart the session. But at least it gracefully dies and comes back, never had it freeze on me.

EDIT: Playing MGS5 rn and the game froze when I tabbed, locked the entire system. Can't even switch to a new tty so I'm forced to reboot.

System: high end AMD on Nix with relatively latest pkgs from unstable branch

Idk how the majority of this thread can say Wayland is perfectly stable, it's plain disingenuous.

I think it depends on your usecase a lot. Most of the feedback is not related to games, so I don't think most of them experience your issue, because you alt-tab out of a loading game. Do you have any major issues that are not related to playing games?

I can play games fine on Wayland, but I don't alt-tab out, so I haven't encountered what you have.
