My main issue with Wayland is screen recording. There are limitations to what you can record and in discord's case what you can steam. I can't steam individual game windows, it just shows up as a black screen. I refuse to use one of the updated clients in the AUR because regardless of what anyone says, that is in fact against the discord TOS, and I run a server with my close friends. I won't run the risk of getting my account banned all because I want to steam my desktop. I'm just gonna switch back to x11, the performance difference is negligible. I like Wayland for what it could be but at it stands there are just too many little things that get in the way.
