for real. Been using wayland on NixOS with nvidia gpu for several months now without issue. The only problem's I've had are with sway, because their devs hate nvidia and refuse to support it, and i refuse to use nouveau. Solution: don't use sway.

    I bought an AMD gpu to use sway and it is still broken, don't use sway.

    Broken in what way? I only used it a short while years ago and didn't notice anything.

    Using Niri now on an AMD GPU with great success, it's working great. Using it for work, gaming, everything I did with i3 and Hyprland before it.

    Also using the yuzu works (eden and citron) performance is awful, like half the FPS I used to get on i3wm, this also happens in hyprland but not in plasma, apparently this is because the two window managers lack fifo v1 (hyprland did add it a few months ago, I need to check if it works better now).
