What's the difference for a real user between using X11 or Wayland nowdays? I haven't found anything useful on the internet, so I'm asking you. Internet articles on the topic (and about WMs too) seem to be advertising slop since they explain anything but the real things. Also, if anyone used the XLibre fork, I would love to hear about your experience with it.

Specifically, it's windows opening in the wrong screen. In some full-screen Wine games it means games crash when you move them.

And for animations, if I use touchpad 3-finger touch to switch desktops, the animation is reversed.
