Wayland is a must for me at this point. If it starts supporting it I will give it a serious try

You can expect work to begin on that after the upcoming major release. We are waiting on a fix in an upstream library.

Honest question: why? I tried Wayland for a while but couldn’t tell what is different about it as just a user.

Not OP but seamless (tearfree) rendering and fractional scaling for displays are the two big goodies, for me.

Ironically we have both of those on this Fyne Desk running in X.

Tear free is provided by the compositor and the fractional scaling was never impossible with X it just had to be coded into the toolkit and most could not be bothered. Fyne has always supported fractional scaling and I think Enlightenment does too.

Search for Wayland I think the debate is not new.
