A pgtk build of emacs is what I have been using for quite some time without any significant problems (native Wayland build)

Pretty sure there are builds for the browsers you mentioned that run natively on wayland

Yeah, here's where I think things tend to go off the rails in the wayland discussions with people having different personal experiences. I've tried to run both firefox and chrome in the native wayland mode and neither works properly _for me_. I forget what the chrome issue was, but in firefox on KWIN if I enlarge a window the portion of the window that was added doesn't render properly --- it's a flashing white rectangle --- and then if I resize it down it either crashes or garbles the whole window. I'm sure this doesn't happen to everyone.
