As an ex nvidia and recent amd user on Linux, I'd say wayland isn't ready for gaming. X11 is still great, and wayland is the sand dunes of Linux in that they just move too fast for valve to adequately offer stable support. Also xwayland is really what's running most games, and that is just another layer.

Electron apps are shit and just a fancy chrome window get a real app or just use chrome --app=https://url.tld

All proton games are going to offer native Wayland pretty soon

Pretty soon being version 10/11+

People need to start being realistic.

It's gonna be a loong time before you fave game will run in native wayland.
