Yep you read that right, we’ve decided to throw the lever and go Wayland by default! The three remaining showstoppers are in the process of being fixed and we expect them to be done soon̵…
Having an Nvidia-card, should I be worried about this? So far I’ve read so many “Nvidia bad, Wayland no work” posts that I have just stayed clear waiting for a final confirmation that everything is smooth sailing.
On much more recent driver versions Wayland support has been further improved. I suggest going with Fedora Silverblue since RPM Fusion is pretty quick to roll out new driver versions.
I’ve been using Wayland on Nvidia with plasma for about a year and it’s been mostly fine. Only a few minor issues like night color not working or some Xwayland apps flickering, but the system feels far more responsive on Wayland so it’s well worth it to me

None of the issues I have with wayland stem from my nvidia card, and I’m on a gaming laptop.
Seems like one of those ‘lies told so often it becomes’ true kind of deals.
