  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Other than that, it doesn't really bring much to the table currently. Not everyone needs (or wants) HDR and many of the other features that I would like to have are still in the works, so... I don't really see a reason to use it, at least not now.

    The biggest feature of Wayland for me is mixed refreshrate monitors works OOB. On X this is a pain to get even remotely working and it's impossible if your monitors aren't dividable (120/60 works, 144/60 stutters).

    This is from my experience something that is starting to be a way more common issue (high refreshrate laptops with 60 external monitors at businesses or high refreshrate monitor for gaming and a smaller secondary monitor for info lookup/discord).

    other than that, Xorg does win the "more stable" prize for me, but if I wanted stability, I should've become a carpenter.

    144/60 works fine for me on X. I only had to disable Vsync for the compositor. Games now run at full 144Hz on my main monitor, and the other two are running perfectly fine at 60Hz.

    Though I'm still waiting for the day that I can finally make the jump to Wayland when nvidia support improves (or I have enough money for a new AMD GPU).

    If you're using the latest Nvidia drivers, try it out. I heard support improved dramatically with the latest releases.
