I love wayland in old laptops, specially the ones with an week iGPU, as it's a lot faster than Xorg, only being a problem with a few specific programs like OBS Studio.
But.. in desktop I use a Nvidia card, and for business shenanigans the drivers are not compatible with wayland, and Xorg it's ok but there are some features I miss, like fractional scaling in Gnome 3.
Right now I can see wayland as great alternative for casual users, that mostly use a web browser and require a fast solution that it's good enough, but I don't see it as a full replacement yet, and god knows if will ever be.
The problem it's that despite being old Xorg it's great too, and the benefits for wayland are there, but maybe not enough for a full migration from all developers.
