    Whelp, guess I’ll have to drop Plasma then :/

      May I ask why? Is there a feature you need that doesn’t work?

      Just curious, I’ve been using Wayland on Plasma for awhile now with no issues.

        Not OP but I’ve got exactly one thing that doesn’t work on Wayland that works on X11. For whatever reason, Streaming Oblivion Remastered from Steam on my Linux desktop to my TV will not show video in Wayland, but does in X11. It’s literally the only reason I’ve got X11

        It’s a weird-ass issue where Nvidia+Wayland prevents me from playing RuneScape. The only thing that works is switching to X11.

      Xwayland is a thing.
