Hello everyone,
I've been avoiding Wayland on Linux for some time, but I was provided a work machine with KDE Plasma that works great and very fluid, and wasn't aware that it's running on Wayland. E.g. there was absolutely 0 problems with it and I didn't even had to know what underlying DS is that Linux using.
I know there's a myriad of threads here but versions are moving and support is getting better all the time. So what's the current status, I can see it works on FreeBSD, does it work nicely all the time, and do all X apps work normally under Xwayland? How about DRI eg 3D ones?
I presume that everything using Qt and GTK will natively switch to wayland, I'm curious about the "old" X stuff. It's common to have a previous, not up to dadte version of some infrequently used piece of software in ports.
Currently, I have KDE 5 on X11 on 14.0 and it's working good. I guess several forum people have moved and daily driving Wayland and/or KDE, so give out your story/verdict is this a good move to be doing now.
Thanks
