I run proprietary Nvidia drivers as well and Wayland runs so much better than Xorg now that I'm permanently coming over to Wayland. I'm extremely happy rn with Wayland

I‘m running kde on debian stable. I‘ll let you know when my branch is ready. Until then its X11 all the way. Wayland wont even let me log in.

Might be waiting a while if you're on Debian. But should be pretty nice once it's working.

No biggie. Thanks for pointing it out. :)

What version does Debian ship? 5.27 LTS works great on Fedora

Not at my pc atm. I‘ll try to remember to look it up when I‘m home.

5.27.5

Ok thats not that new, I think Fedora is on 5.27.10 and its pretty perfect. I know many bugs that will only be fixed in Plasma 6 5 though (which is probably more stable than 5.27 as its to much tested).

Excited for Fedora 40!

Gnome is my preferred DE but I'm glad KDE takes a huge step towards Wayland.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I mean KDE has better Wayland support than GNOME afaik.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I cannot compare them but I have an AMD GPU and Gnome on Wayland is almost perfect.

It lacks fractional scaling which is totally ironic because their gestures mainly make sense on modern touchpads, which are only on laptops. These laptops mostly have 14in HiDPI displays and you need 125% scaling for them, but in GNOME this doesnt exist at all and if you force enable it its blurry.

And something else like dynamic refresh rates, tearing or something that I never noticed.
