Most xorg drivers have an option to run in tearfree mode.
Another dealbreaker for me (i did the i3 sway journey this summer) is the early stage of remote desktop. With x it is super easy to spin up a nice vncserver. I also miss setxkbmap, xrandr, import etc.
Wayland had some nice ideas and some not so useful ones. I'm waiting for something simple to replace xorg and wayland in the future.
- trulyrandom 7y agoTear free mode has never worked for me on multi-monitor setups. All Xorg drivers have this issue in my experience. Nvidia, AMD, Intel and even the modesetting driver. Wayland seems to magically fix it.
- naranha 7y agoStrange, it seems to work fine for me on 2 FHD monitors at least. Maybe I just don't see it...
- trulyrandom 7y agoHmm. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the refresh rates of my two monitors are not exactly the same.
