Hello there! I was using Wayland for quite a while and things are more or less smooth (NVIDIA proprietary driver). I think it’s time for Manjaro to move to Wayland by default for both Plasma session and SDDM. Here’s small FAQ regarding the change: Q: How can I check if I’m using Wayland? A: Check About this System in System Settings. Q: How could I try Wayland? A: Log out from your session and select a Plasma (Wayland) desktop session for the next log in. Q: What hardware is supported? ...
A year ago when I was looking at linux for gaming what I kept hearing is that Wayland wasn’t ready. I’ve been running Nobara 42 with KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland for about a month now and it’s been great, now I hear Gnome is dropping X11 support, etc. What changed?
Wayland had/has a couple of missing features. Personally, it’s nothing I use so I’ve been on Wayland for years now, but if you care about those missing features, then they won’t work.
Honestly I don’t even remember what they were anymore. I think screen capture was a big one though.
Screen capture in what way? Cause spectacle works fine for screenshots, I can stream video on discord, etc, so I’ve not run into a screen capture related issue.
