I use xpra which lets me run persistent seamless windows from my VMs and remote servers. It would probably work okay with xwayland but i might as well keep using X. I understand why people use Wayland though and would recommend it to newcomers.

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.

I found waypipe to fit that role over LAN at least.
Thanks, will look into it
Doesn't Wayland only work with Amd Gpus?
It dose work with NVidia GPUs too but propriatary software adopts slower to new technologies so the cards with propriatary drivers naturally have more issues and that's sadly still the case in a direct comparison but it's getting better fast

X11, because I haven't figured out how to get Wayland to work with my Nvidia 1070. One day I'll put in the effort, or finally upgrade my card. But for now it's fine
Whichever works best for you. I would recommend Wayland to anyone, but if you run into any problems with it (either bugs with your compositor or protocol limitations), then just use X11.
If you have got a Nvidia video card and you want to use it, use X11. Other than that use Wayland unless you encounter any bug or incompatibility.
Wayland is more modern and actively receives updates and features.
xorg, for keepassxcs autotype feature
Wayland! When xfce comes with Wayland? When Linux Mint have wayland? #linuxmint #wayland
Hopefully not until it has full feature parity with X11.
