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.

Hey, whatever works for you, works, it's just... is disabling your 2nd monitor with xrandr every time you wanna play a game really more convenient than using Wayland? That's a genuine question btw, I'd be surprised if KDE on Wayland is THAT bad, where disabling your 2nd monitor on X11 is preferable to using it
Of course whatever works for you works too, we found workarounds for what we need.
Yes it's more convenient because it's a keybinding away. Also, on Wayland I have to use kernel modeset and it is impossible to "overclock/undervoltage" the GPU to save energy. I also get more frames on X. It's not that KDE on Wayland is bad...it's exactly switching to X just to do that to play games is inconvenient.
