    Is there something you lack in Wayland but have in xorg? (lemmy.world)

    Nvidia has a closed source driver. Wayland tries to support it but Nvidia keeps changing how the driver works every week. So it's impossible to deliver quality with Nvidia shit.

    Why are you lying? Large software projects change slowly and stuff like GPU drivers work according to standards and interfaces. The bugs experienced aren't even on the open source software side. The bugs in the general case are largely in the nvidia side and being fixed on that side albeit not briskly.

    For sure, but unfortunately, that's still a Wayland problem.
