    When it works it's fantastic. I was entirely unable to use kde under xorg on my laptop, but with Wayland it's quite usable.

    I've also experienced kde-Wayland with an Nvidia gpu on a much more powerful desktop and I could barely log in, the mouse would move every 5 seconds or so. I did manage to find a distro with properly updated drivers as I knew it was coming down the line, but holy crap did I get to understand why Nvidia gets the hate.
