The KDE upstream developers release a distribution called KDE Neon that is based on Ubuntu, with an extra file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d which provides significantly newer builds than what Ubuntu / Kubuntu offer.
They offer two flavors of this distribution-- one meant for end-users with the stable Plasma releases and one with bleeding-edge git builds. The bleeding-edge git build now defaults to Wayland, but the build meant for daily usage does not. AFAIK, they aren't yet recommending that downstream distributions default to wayland. Hopefully it will happen in 2017!
- sho_hn 10y agoI think we're on track for delivering that in 2017. We do already have users on Wayland; it's not yet a drop-in replacement feature-wise, so it's up to whether we have the subset you use already in place.
