Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

Can we please wait until wayland can actually replace x11

Unfortunately there's always devs that refuse to change so long as their setup still works, even if there's significantly better alternatives. The only option for dealing with them is to rip off the bandaid. Either they'll put in the work to keep up or they'll fall into obscurity
