From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What's the current landscape like for gaming with KDE Wayland? I've heard that recently VSync can be disabled and that Wine has better support for Wayland nowadays.

Whats your experience like with this setup?

I've been using it for a long time now, gaming hasn't really been an issue at all. It's mostly graphical artifacts with some applications/the compositor at this point when using non-integer scaling and potentially also related to my multi-monitor configuration, such as lines that shouldn't be on screen, pixel scaling artifacts, and plasmashell rendering the desktop for the wrong monitor scale after the screen locks and turns off, but there's been nothing that completely breaks it anymore for a while now.
