Wayland still hasn’t merged base color support after 4 years and we’re still relying on either gamescope (which also runs on x11) or KDE/GNOME experimental
No 1:1 touchpad gestures (elementary os not included)
This is the only valid concern on this shit tier comment.
Half of these issues used to be common to Wayland, and the other half have nothing to do with display drivers.
Most of the wayland devs are x11 devs, they aren’t stupid and do have real reasons for using wayland, but these aren’t those.
My question is… have you tried to use X11 with 2 monitors that have different resolutions and refresh rates? Have you also tried to play games on X11 or to screenshare… anything on X11.? I’m not calling the devs stupid, I’m calling the people who hate on wayland without trying it stupid.
Yes my old setup was a 1600x1200 60hz display next to a 1920x1080 75hz display
Screenshared all the time in discord with no issue whatsoever.
Tbf this was after some arguably dirty hacks had been added to DEs which instead of locking to lowest refresh rate, it would just run at highest available and anything that had a common factor would be fine like 60/120.
That being said, I never experienced tearing or stuttering even with a full screen game open and youtube playing on the second monitor, though I think if I gave it enough load it probably would.
Ended up getting rid of 4:3 monitor because it was like 10lbs and really old, and because I managed to get a free 16:9 lcd.
Still on same install with XFCE, still works fine.
