That is a lot of writing without linking to actual detailed issues you are having. It is complaining while making it near impossible for anyone to help you or figure out exactly what your issues are to try to resolve them.
I have tried these as addons, and they basically suck, and its complex to change them, and for what benefit? Some smoother graphics? I am on Linux, that is the least important thing. Basically if it doesn't give me real world benefits, I am unlikely to want to switch, and if it gives me more issues and less features for things that matter and isn't a drop in replacement it might as well be a scooter to my car.
This really sums up this side of the argument for me (though it doesn't address the security features of Wayland). If I want to watch an ultra high definition movie, or play a game, rebooting to windows is a miniscule price. Almost all of my work is done on Linux, and I value it because everything can be made to work, usually with little effort. Wayland adds some severe overhead to that work.
For anyone who wants a functional desktop on any DE, x.org is the best, and cannot be replaced currently by wayland in features or software compatibility.
So you're saying let's not improve the Linux desktop because one can just reboot into Windows to do desktop things? What even is that argument?
I want to have a nice desktop on Linux, thank you very much.
- Cursor rapidly changing state for no discernible reason
- Missed inputs, particularly in xWayland
- Drawing issues, where portions of one window would appear and the rest would fail to draw entirely
- Electron apps were hit-or-miss out of the box, but I got most of them working
- Display flickering and seriously messed-up color correction in xWayland applications, rendering a handful of games and apps just completely unusable
It's been a few months since I've given it a run again, but I'm not exactly excited to spend a day figuring out how my display manager functions when x11 works well enough for my uses. Maybe once the KDE bugs get ironed out properly I'll give it another pass.
