Yeah I tried it, out of the gate my favourite WM - i3 isn’t supported.
I tried some of the other WMs, and they all kinda sucked imo.
I tried Gnome but it didn’t work for me when I tried using guake.
I also had issues with Spectacle on Plasma (captured area is just plain white).
In both - OBS didn’t work properly either (black screen with some capture methods, massive lag with others) and games were a bit laggy (stutters/frame time spikes).
Last one could be that Wayland doesn’t play nice with the proprietary Nvidia driver or that unlike with Xorg, Proton/SteamPlay dont support launching a gamescope nested session from a Wayland session (or didn’t back when I tried it) which usually ensures silky smooth performance.

So yeah, this was a while back but.
i3 doesn’t work with Wayland because it’s an X11 WM… You wouldn’t complain about X11 because Sway doesn’t work on it.
Btw, Sway is a drop-in Wayland replacement for i3 if you want to move to Wayland. i3 configs work with Sway; it’s an i3 clone.
