• I’ve been using Wayland on Ubuntu 24.04 with Nvidia’s 555 driver and I have yet to see something seriously break because of it. 545 was unstable as hell, but 555 has been running perfectly. I’ve even got a working external display on my laptop with the 555 drivers, something I’d previously given up on with Wayland.

      Plasma is much further along (having stuff like HDR and VRR working for instance) but things have gotten a lot better quickly with Nvidia+Wayland.

          I think Wayland is at point now where I’d be comfortable recommending it to beginners. I’m on nvidia and just switched myself in the past month because I felt like it was finally ready.

          To me this is actually a good move for Ubuntu’s reputation.
