Do you daily drive Wayland, if so since when, if not when will you?

I've been on Wayland for the past two years exclusively (Nvidia).

I thought it was okay for the most part but then I had to switch to an X session recently. The experience felt about the same. Out of curiosity, I played a couple of games and realized they worked much better. Steam doesn't go nuts either.

Made me think maybe people aren't actually adopting it that aggressively despite the constant coverage in the community. And that maybe I should just go back.

I said: "I will daily drive wayland once sway fixes their compatibility bugs with i3" That is I am not using wayland at the moment and I'm using i3 (x11) due to bugs in sway.

Sway is the wayland window manager that is a "drop in" replacement of i3. I can't use it right now because it has several bugs that prevent me from using it.

Nevermind me, haven't had my morning coffee yet, I read "I'll use Wayland once they fix their compatibility bugs with i3" so was kind of confused since i3 dies not work on Wayland.

since i3 dies not work on Wayland.

Might wanna drink a bit more coffee btw (sorry I couldn't hold it lol).
