Title, I can’t switch to Wayland because of nVidia (and because I love Awesome WM).

    X11 doesn’t limit it, but you will want to enable “Force composition pipeline” to prevent screen tearing. nvidia and Wayland work together btw. It’s not a match made in heaven but they do work.

      It’s simply not worth it. I used Wayland for a couple years but ended up switching back to X11 on nVidia hardware.

      It does work, but its just really glitchy and unstable. Idk how many times Ive woke my pc from sleep and my cursor was just a giant square of gibberish pixels. Or the fact that night light still does not work on GNOME + Wayland because the proprietary driver does not support GAMMA_LUT (this issue has been open for years btw)

      I think forcing pipeline enables vsync or something because there is noticeable input delay when playing on 60hz screen.
