Hey guys, what are the pros and cons to wayland if I intend to use my PC for gaming + others?

Comparisons to X?

General impressions?

Your advice on if I should use it or stick with X?

My PC parts are arriving soon, and while Ive been a linux user since 2016 its the first time I intend to fully main drive linux, so I guess im just looking for as much information as I can get on it.

Feel free to post links to articles or anything that will answer if you prefer, we’re on a link aggregator after all ;) and I dont mind reading.

Thanks in advance :)

    except unfortunately sway doesn’t actually support VRR the way it’s suppose to be used. Currently VRR is active until you make a window full screen, once a window is full screen VRR doesn’t work anymore. So pretty much exactly backwards from how it’s suppose to work.

    Hyprland does VRR right but it has several other issues that make sway the better choice for now, just with VRR disabled.
