No one is going all in, and once distros retire it, it's dead. Jumping before distros because you have a rush of blood to the head isn't particularly helpful.

My hardware has no Nvidia, but getting screen recording on Wayland was a royal pain in the backside. Functionally, x11 just works better for me right now. When they iron this stuff out and make it effortless, great, but until then, the software still needs maturing.
