Im going to switch my 1060 only becuz of wayland

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Literally the same thing I did, switched from 1060 6gb to rx 6600 just for wayland.

It's not worth it tbh

Did the same thing. 1080ti to 6700xt. No regrets whatsoever, loving the Wayland experience.

Is it not possible to run Wayland?

[–] majestic 1 points 7 months ago

50% chance it will be ok. It worked perfectly on arch linux with hyprland, but the same set up on NixOS is having some troubles

Wayland doesn't play well with proprietary Nvidia drivers.

Manjaro stuck with X11, and people complain about it on the forums alot. I run Nvidia, and X11 while dead works just fine for me.

It does run, but not as fine as it would on AMD or Intel
