      This has not been my experience at all. A few crashes in a year or so of use. Apparently experiences vary.

      My current KDE Wayland exp is also no great, but I have an older Nvidia GPU too.

        I’m unfortunately stuck on Nvidia until I can find a swap for my 2070s

      Can you explain what “breaks” you are experiencing?

      I’m running Fedora/KDE/Wayland on two machines here, and the only oddity I get regularly is on my system with one monitor in landscape and one in portrait. Sometimes half of the landscape screen seems to be funky until I turn the portrait monitor off and on again (almost like it is trying to put the two displays on one for some reason). Most everything else has been flawless.

        The panel freezes after a short time using it. I can’t play a lot of my games because the mouse doesn’t work when it opens. The monitor position always changes but that happens on x11 as well.

        Running Wayland/kde on endeavourOS here. It has gotten so much better in the last couple of updates. I used to have stutters and just random plasmashell carshes. Those are gone now. Only major annoyance I still have now is some apps are still blurry, which is not Wayland’s fault of course, and sddm when I wake the machine from suspend always turns into a black screen with a warning that the session is locked and I need to unlock it with ctrl-alt-F and run loginctl-unlock-session 9 (or some random number). Id do that and it unlocks. It’s so weird, and not a big deal, but kind of annoying.
