Meanwhile Wayland absolutely hates my year old AMD laptop. It hangs itself on a regular basis, some applications go completely unresponsive every so often to the point they need to be kill -9’ed. Rock solid when running X11, completely unreliable in Wayland. It’s a shame, I want to like Wayland as I think there is no future for X11, but as it stands currently I simply cannot use it yet for my day to day business.

Which processor/distro/DE are you on? My AMD laptop is an year old as well and I’ve had zero issues with Wayland.

Ryzen 7 Pro 6850U / Fedora 38 / KDE (Wayland)

Weird, I have a less extreme, but opposite experience. More stuff works better on Wayland for my laptop (Debian 12 + KDE, Ryzen 5500u)

Be the change you want to see in the world. File a ticket and work with them to hunt down the problem. Who knows, it could be simple.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
