Wayland or X11? Why?

Wayland all the way, 120 hz Freesync monitor with 60 hz second monitor works perfectly on KDE Plasma with AMD. No fussing about with X11 configs or worrying about if the compositor is active or not, it just works.

I can't seem to get Freesync working on KDE Wayland with a single monitor (NixOS with an AMD R9 380). Any tips? I'm using vrrTest to test, and my TV reports when Freesync is enabled.

I'm not having any issue in XFCE on x11/xorg with a 164Hz main screen @2560x1400, and a 60Hz second screen set vertically @1080x1920. Just using the display manager config provided by XFCE.
