Is wayland ready for gaming with nivida RTX series? I have RTX 3060 Ti. I wouldn’t mind messing with it to make it work if I have to.

Would want to use a window manager like sway or river.

    As an AMD user on Wayland who primarily uses Steam/Proton, I haven’t had any Wayland-related issues with gaming at all. This isn’t surprising, since the compositor used by Steam Deck (Gamescope) is also Wayland-based.

    FYI: If you ever do have compositor-related issues (X11 OR Wayland), you can almost always fix the issue by running the game in a nested Gamescope instance by editing the game’s launch command.

      I still find Wayland to be bad with input lag and frame timings, and that’s with my Radeon 680M. Games like Valheim just run way better in X11 than Wayland at the moment. If you’re using a desktop class card, you might just be brute forcing your way through some of these issues.
