> It's been stable to use and a joy to configure. X11 survives because of legacy and inertia, and I haven't looked back one second since the ~3 years I made the switch to Wayland/Sway.
Good for you, but I had the completely opposite experience. X11 just works for me without any serious issues, but the last time I tried Wayland a few months ago (on RDNA2) it was an unstable mess. Play a video with mpv? That's a crash. Firefox and some other applications I don't remember also had weird issues.
And Gnome seemed to be the only desktop that was somewhat usable (except for all the crashes...). KDE still felt quite incomplete and others would not run at all (Hikari just made my screens flicker).
There are a few things that really make me want to switch, but in the end I always end up back with X11.
