Of note Wayland fans always say everyone who has trouble are all holding it wrong. Tail wagging the dog they suggest you should have switched DE, applications, GPU, workflows, everything users actually care about in order to serve something no user has ever cared about...plumbing.
If your not holding it wrong then something else MUST be at fault. Your distro must have fucked up the packaging, your app doesn't support wayland, your GPU's wayland support isn't up to snuff. Again users don't usually hire a programmer to figure out which piece of software is to "blame" nor care.
If you have a little red switch and you toggle it to the left and everything works and you toggle it to the right and nothing does most people are going to toggle it right. People have more important shit to do than figure out why toggling it left makes their lives suck.
Look at this exact example with you positing a wholly fictional distro packaging or display manager problem to paper over the fact that sway is literally designed to crash at the login screen if you use the GPU with >80% of the discrete market share.

Almost 2/3 of people are still using X11 because as experienced by users Wayland is kind of shitty.
