That’s fair, don’t think I’ve messed with Linux mint in a good while. Didn’t realise there’d be much of a difference between Wayland on one DE vs the other. Since that is the case isn’t that more of a mark against the DE rather than Wayland itself?
Yup. I have yet to play around with wayland since im a linux mint user but look forward to it. I know what xserver intended to solve and weve gone way past those times. Something new is needed, and i hope wayland can integrate ui a lot better than xserver can. From what ive heard there are things wayland cant do that xserver can ( like stitching 2 monitors together and make it act like 1 ) but that wont stop me from trying and looking for performance differences
Not really. Linux mint/cinnamon is lacking behind on wayland support. Im still waiting for them to finish it but its going very very slowly.
With debian and ubuntu switching by default, i think linux mint will have to change gears quickly

Yup, Cinnamon is slow on Wayland support, but they’re getting there. Eventually.
