Gnome requiring extensions for some basic functionality and happily breaking them are deliberate design decisions from the Gnome devs. Compare that to the kernel's long standing "we don't break userspace" policy. I don't use Gnome.

Wayland has taken a long time to get where it is now, but on my laptop which only needs to deal with one 60 Hz normal DPI screen running a web browser it was ready years ago. There have been a lot of edge cases that needed to be chased down - I needed VRR in XWayland apps and the ability to turn off DPI scaling for XWayland before I could switch my desktop over.
