Ubuntu 24.10 Now Defaults To NVIDIA On Wayland

Afaict wine uses XWayland. Sometimes with my games I'll have problems like the game running on one display and expecting input from the other, even when I've switched the second display off with wlr-randr. I also have occasional UI scaling problems. Most things works well most of the time though.

With a good compositor, Wayland itself is probably ready enough for most cases. A lot of applications need to be updated to better support it though., and that seems like a lot of work.

Screen sharing on Discord with Wayland kinda sucks at the moment, but I believe that's moreso Discord's fault for not updating Electron or something along those lines.

If you really need screenshare there were some options with xwaylandvideobridge, a custom client, or just running it via the browser

If you use scaling some apps can be blurry. Oh and screen sharing doesn't work on discord cause they refuse to update their app. Other than that it was smooth sailing for me

Both teamviewer and rustdesk are acting funny as hell since the upgrade. Seriously buggy for me. Screen locks up. Keyboard and mouse also act funny. tiger vnc is ok at the moment. That’s my biggest takeaway. It’s been hard to do stuff remotely with Wayland enabled.

Am I going to have a bad time

yes, don't listen to the people with narrow use-cases that "work perfectly for them"

Except blind users cannot even install the distro at all now because all Wayland distros have broken screen readers.
