Wayland pros and cons?

promitheas@iusearchlinux.fyi to Linux@lemmy.ml – 51 points –

Hey guys, what are the pros and cons to wayland if I intend to use my PC for gaming + others?

Comparisons to X?

General impressions?

Your advice on if I should use it or stick with X?

My PC parts are arriving soon, and while Ive been a linux user since 2016 its the first time I intend to fully main drive linux, so I guess im just looking for as much information as I can get on it.

Feel free to post links to articles or anything that will answer if you prefer, we're on a link aggregator after all ;) and I dont mind reading.

Thanks in advance :)

For new users this isn't really a problem though, but I agree with the sentiment

For new users it is mainly a problem for blog posts and similar sources that now provide solutions to their problems that no longer work.
