Because all i hear are horrorstories about Wayland not being ready with NVidia despite projects saying it is. Didn't test it, that's why i said i give it a spin.
Just wanted to tell you that it feels a bit weird that X11 users (who are still the absolute majority of users) have to switch to a completely other system basically (which also introduces much more dependencies installed on our PCs) "just" to test bug reproducability...
I 100% understand that you cannot split yourself in half and develop it for BOTH x11 and wayland. And since you use wayland you obviously developed it for that. And the fact you tested it on x11 and it works (as far as you can see) is a big step and i thank you for that! But i am just a little bit sad that there is no "made-for-x11" replacement for bismuth. I will not switch to wayland any time soon and bismuth is discontinued. So i am just a little bit frustrated and that got channeled towards you - sorry for that.
@RandomLegend
Bismuth works fine with Plasma 5.27 X11
no it doesn't anymore... bugginess comes through.
Open windows on second monitor gets resized whenever i open something on my main monitor. Sometimes windows stack upon each other and get mixed up whenever i try to sort them again.
All these were not existent before 5.27. It still works 95% don't get me wrong. But some minor issues come through that get annoying over the span of a full day if you encounter them everytime you open something
