Old NVIDIA gpu here. Wayland is still completely broken for me. I shouldn’t have to buy specific hardware to make my Linux work.
But that is hardly Waylands fault, be angry about Nvidia for having bare to none Linux support for decades.
And yet works fine for me in x11 where my windows and mouse both don’t run at 1fps. I hobby work with ai models and cuda, someone needs to fix it or I’m sticking with x11. I never said it was waylands fault, but given nvidia never acknowledged x11 either and it works over there maybe accepting reality about who is more likely to fix it would be good for that team.
NVIDIA is a billion (maybe trillion now?) dollar company that leaves it up to people in their free time to support their hardware on linux and you're blaming the unpaid devs, not NVIDIA?

I’m not blaming anyone. I’m stating a fact that Wayland does not work for me and that as long as that is true, an opinion that x11 is better. I don’t care who fixes it. Especially in the world of running ai models, it’s more and more important that nvidia works in your environment
A Linux user time traveling from the 90s/00s would be elated to know that one day someone could possibly have this opinion.
