Nice. I really want to use Wayland, it feels a lot smoother. I just have too many issues with it atm. Especially when it comes to screen share.

  I've found the abstractions with Flatpak, xdg-desktop-portal, pipewire, and misc. web browsers to be decent for screen sharing with Wayland Native clients, not so much :/ Many-years user of Sway here. My screen sharing is actually broken now, and I'm pretty sure I missed something in my reinstall - it had been great for a year or so

    I'll have to look into it. I switched back and haven't attempted to switch again but it really was so nice.

      Right on - best of luck when you do! Browsers are my screen-sharing magic, though not every service allows those... or offers an equivalent experience. What desktop environment/window manager do you tend to prefer? Depending on that you'll likely have to choose/consider a different 'xdg-desktop-portal'. It may be helpful to share this tool: 'xlsclients' It can show you things running in that compat mode 'XWayland'. This is usually the explanation for something looking pretty choppy or showing strange clipboard behavior :D
