Either way is fine usually. If you really care about 1:1 trackpad gestures like I do, get Wayland. If you have an nvidia card, get x11. Otherwise it’s probably not something most people will even notice.

what does 1:1 trackpad mean? and again, input is managed by libinput not by wayland's compositors

When performing a gesture, the animation on screen matches up to the motion of your fingers. Stopping moving your fingers halfway will stop the animation halfway, and moving slowly will slow the animation.
