A lot of the new modern users are into gamin

I can't use wayland for gaming because I do multi-monitor gaming, and something that was a very simple xrandr --setmonitor is impossible in wayland...

I 100% have seen performance increases and stability increases after switching to Wayland with regards to gaming workloads.

All I have seen so far is that I get half the fps I get on citron/eden on sway vs i3wm.

They are also fed up with the wayland bugs and decided to force xcb everywhere, one of the bugs is that the app just crashes on wayland gnome, it does not happen plasma, or sway, or any other place, just gnome.
