Hey guys, what are the pros and cons to wayland if I intend to use my PC for gaming + others?

Comparisons to X?

General impressions?

Your advice on if I should use it or stick with X?

My PC parts are arriving soon, and while Ive been a linux user since 2016 its the first time I intend to fully main drive linux, so I guess im just looking for as much information as I can get on it.

Feel free to post links to articles or anything that will answer if you prefer, we’re on a link aggregator after all ;) and I dont mind reading.

Thanks in advance :)

    I used to use Global Menu stil 2 years and it was a mess. For me, Wayland is a gift from gods. The screen tearing went away and it feels more snappier. When I rarely need an external monitor, gone is the need of xrandr-plumbing to make different resolutions to work.
