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.

KDE fixed a lot of Wayland bugs over the last months and especially with the upcoming launch of Plasma 6.0, so I'd give it a try again now or in half a year.
Nvidia also constantly fixes the problems with their Wayland support so it's only getting better. Debian doesn't have recent enough packages to have a good KDE Wayland experience.
Gnome Wayland doesn't support features like vrr/adaptive sync or tearing, so it isn't a good gaming experience. Otherwise it's great.
This is good information.
Yeah I imagine the struggles I had with Debian had something to do with enabling proprietary drivers and firmware and leveraging those. Before getting those drivers, the default nouveau drivers were awful, the performance was comically bad.
I'm also not a Linux power user though, so for sure any or all of the above could be meatware issues.
