I was wondering how many wayland users are here, and what is your gpu? Why not the other?

I for one use xorg, because of my ye olden nvidia gpu that does not mesh too well with wayland.

Yeah, I have the same issues with Wayland personally, and all my builds are Intel/Nvidia.

I really want Wayland to work but it literally just doesn't. Every once and a while I'll log into it as my DE just to see if anything has been fixed or if it's gotten worse. Usually it doesn't detect my external monitor, which is a pretty big issue. Hoping the push KDE is doing in February for updating Plasma's Wayland systems comes out relatively bug-free and solves most of my problems.
