From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

--my-next-video-card-wont-be-nvidia
Even if you have an nvidia card, it's... fine now? With a 1080Ti, and Plasma, I haven't really had any issues on the Wayland session, that aren't straight up KDE bugs
Until the next NVidia-specific workaround is required.
I mean, fingers crossed we don't, but so far this has also not been an issue for a year or two, in my case. Cruising happily
Still no VRR support which is likely a dealbreaker for many.
Like I've said, it's not flawless. There are things missing, but in the larger scheme of things, it is both usable and stable. In my daily usage, I have not encountered any dealbreakers
Can't you use VRR on KDE?
With AMD you can. GSync isn't supported on Wayland.
Series 10 is safe to use in wayland?
