As an average user, I notice input issues, multi-monitor issues and incorrect animations in Wayland. X11 just works fine. But somehow pointing out problems with Wayland always gets you downvoted because it’s “newer and more secure”.

31·13 days agoI also switched to Wayland when the news came X11 would go away. It just sucks they aren’t fixing all the input issues on Wayland, especially since I’m using touchpad most of the time.
95% on Wayland is a bit hard to believe, 100% of KDE users I know both use X11.

Buuf cursor, it fits with Buuf icons.
Not sure but old habits die hard.
The only times something got pasted with middle click was accidental and then it doesn’t even take what’s in the clipboard, which is also annoying if you’re in the habit of selecting text randomly when you read.
It messes with click to scroll, or just pastes things when all you want is to activate a window or something
Specifically, it’s windows opening in the wrong screen. In some full-screen Wine games it means games crash when you move them.
And for animations, if I use touchpad 3-finger touch to switch desktops, the animation is reversed.
