For GNOME user, it is starting to become usable recently

Not so luck for non-GNOME user

I’ve been using it with KDE on my laptop and desktop (which has an Nvidia GPU).

The laptop is flawless, and the desktop only has minor issues with display configuration (order and/or resolution) getting messed up sometimes when waking from sleep. I’m pretty sure that’s an Nvidia driver bug.

Anyways, it is 100% usable. To say otherwise suggests you haven’t actually tried using it within the past 2 years (at least)

IDK why, but the way you say it really annoys me. Like disregarding people's experiences because you have not faced the same issues.

Anyway, I try to shift to plasma wayland atleast every month. But there's always these weird graphical issues on nvidia (desktop) that ruin my experience, so i switch back to my x11 session. Even KDE has a page detailing the various problems in wayland https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers

Wayland on sway has been a smooth sailing for me, the only thing that made be go back was barriers KVM not working and not finding an open source alternative that works for both Linux and windows.
