GNOME now supports VRR? Damn, you're tempting me to go back. I love GNOME's UX/UI and it's gazillion of libadwaita apps.
It has for ages, even on X11 IIRC. I happen to have two monitors, one with VRR and the other without, and I needed Wayland to get that to work properly.
This is on AMD, YMMV with NVIDIA.
Is vsync still being forced?
Idk, I don't play competitive games, and I don't particularly value high FPS gaming (my monitor only goes to 95hz, which is plenty for the games I play).
I have seen that KDE supposedly allows turning it off now, so it's possible GNOME also does since GNOME seems to generally have better Wayland support. But I'm really not sure, I just generally leave vsync on in games.
