I haven’t used Plasma for any significant length of time since 5.27. Coincidentally, the first major version of Plasma where Wayland was actually daily drivable for me, previous versions would have at least one desktop crash a day.
But my experience on Gnome Wayland has always been good. At least, better than X11, even on NVIDIA before the Wayland compatibility was “good”. Don’t remember exactly dates or version umbers, but it was shortly after it got hardware accelerated Xwayland and before NVIDIA added GBM support. And when I switched to AMD, it only got smoother and more stable.
And recently have been trying out labwc/wlroots and it’s been a very stable experience too.
I moved to labwc in my migration from X11. Gnome/KDE felt less stable on wayland. In a way it makes sense that transition is more painful for big full of features DEs.
so if everyone in the world used kde, “only” the usa would be on x11.
meanwhile i still get random blackouts, frame rate desyncs, and sleep mode crashes when running wayland.
I think I’m on Wayland and it’s been fine?
happy for you.
Ty!
you’re right, they shouldn’t support imperial measurements
Interesting, what hardware do you run?

i mean it’s better now, used to not be able to show the greeter. when i set this machine up i had to change the session through the tty.
Not to mention still absolute crap support from commercial software.
Looking at you,
VMwareBroadcomOmnissa.I moved to labwc in my migration from X11. Gnome/KDE felt less stable on wayland. In a way it makes sense that transition is more painful for big full of features DEs.
yeah, the bigger DEs use more X11 features that they now have to build themselves.
