* Security Benefits, maybe!

* No more screen tearing

* Multiple Displays with multiple different refresh rates, on some compositors (sway can do it!)

* HWVideo Acceleration for firefox (on some setups)

Does this mean we can get VRR on our primary display without having to completely disable other monitors when playing games?

Try it, it could potentially work in Sway, i don't have a VRR card but multiple refresh rates on different displays works there

Yes, I've been doing this on sway for a couple of months now without any issues.

Nice bonus I didn't expect when moving to Wayland: my touchpad magically started behaving waaaay more nicely.
