I don't want to be a pain, but it's not "basically Mint running on an M1 iMac." it's Asahi/Fedora running Cinnamon. Also, you've connected an external monitor for an M1 iMac? Do you mean it's an M1 Macbook instead?
Linux
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.

I’ve had those similar issues with Wayland on previous distros as well. I think Bazzite was the first distro so far for me that worked fully out of the box with Wayland.
I think the browser issues are just Firefox, I suspect it isn't playing nicely with Wayland or they haven't figured it out, as tabs aren't draggable, but there's a move tab menu choice. Also right click doesn't work right, I forgot to mention that, right clicking on a link opens in a new tab and switches you to it, even if'n you don't have that on. As to the keyboard, the layouts section is completely missing in Cinnamon's keyboard menu, and some research online came back that there's no way to change the layout, apparently it was overlooked by the Wayland project.
I was using Wayland on Tumbleweed on my laptop and desktop PC. I had to switch back to X on the desktop, which uses an NVIDIA card, because Firefox windows kept doing this weird flashing. Pretty much everything else worked OK but Firefox was unusable.
Wifi workaround here.
Thanks, should've know that was the problem. Meh, no matter, wired is easily an option.
