I'm not very familiar with this example, but experience from proprietary systems rarely applies to FOSS because the way free software is developed is so different. Furthermore, Qt and GTK apps work out of the box with both wayland and X. The same applies to many other toolkits and libraries.

What part of the ecosystem did you attempt to contribute to? I got a couple of patches merged into Sway and some of its utilities and the community always felt rather welcoming.
