I do. What's the difference?
The compositor works way more precisely. The tearing is gone, font rendering and high resoltution images are way better displayed. Multi monitor setups are better, including different scales for different monitors.
I think there are more, but these are the improvements on wayland I recognised during the last half a year.
It is so much smoother in literally everything, even on insanely powerful hardware.
Smoother? Can you give a specific example?
Try dragging windows on x, then try on wayland. It's a very clear difference.
