Thanks, I get all the arguments from the developers and that it should be better in principle in the long run. But I need screen sharing, screen shots, and of course xsnow ;-)

Screen sharing and screenshots have been working perfectly for me (in fact screenshots are actually better with multi-monitors than X because they don't mess up the off-screen space). No comment about xsnow ;) I think screenshots work out-of the box for most compositors and screenshot tools but depending on your distro you may need to configure xdg-desktop-portal for screen recording. On my distro (NixOS) this seems to work on GNOME with no additional config. For NixOS configuring GNOME which uses Wayland by default (if your GPU supports it) is just: services.xserver = { enable = true; displayManager.gdm.enable = true; desktopManager.gnome.enable = true; }; I'm not aware of any major issues with this and in my experience provides a better experience than using X.
