Tried wayland on arch with modern drivers on a few different DEs and everytime I eventually switched back to Xorg.

One simple example, manually configuring the resolution of a monitor with a mode that is "not compatible" with the monitor. Xorg does it pretty easily with xrandr, wayland seems to have no option for the user to do that.
