I tried Wayland again on my Vega and I see that the input delay dilemma is solved, but I do want to buy a new GPU and thinking Nvidia. Also a year ago I tried a GT 710 I had to see if the situation was that bad with general support. Since then I have seen that the situation is way better now. Last time I had Nvidia on Linux(for games) was with the GTX 800m series years ago and that was obviously on Xorg. What is the experience with RTX cards gaming on Wayland right now?

    Thanks for sharing the sway perspective! I’m an avid i3 enjoyer running similar hardware, and it’s great to hear that my most-likely Wayland window manager is giving a decent experience. :)

      I just recently tried to switch to sway. If you have a 4k display, prepare for all your xwayland programs to be rendered 2k and upscaled.

      Other wm have a workaround for that, but sway devs just completely dismissed the problem.

      I just went back to i3, but that probably means I have to look for something else to switch, which sucks, because it changes my workflow…
