I switched to wayland since arch had manual intervention on the latest update for kwin-x11 I decided it was time to take the plunge.

So far it's actually amazing. In two days of gaming I've had a great experience and OBS has been awesome. I particularly like the pipewire handling of OBS over the x11 window capture.

I also went through the wayland and nvidia arch wiki pages before I started up my game and it looks like everything is now implemented by the nvidia drivers. I'm happy nvidia might finally be catching up, though, I won't hold my breath as it still looks a little like the absolute bare minimum.
