I’m planning to switch to wayland. How’s WINE, and gaming in general, in wayland? Is it as smooth as in X11?

Asking here because most results in google search are a few months old

    Under X, any application can see any other application’s windows. Including key and mouse.

    Wayland is more secure.

    The downside being any application that doesn’t know how to work with wayland won’t be able to do screen sharing etc.

    In Steam’s case, you just have to add the pipewire argument or run Steam in a Gamescope window.
