Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

I'm running a 2080ti and was able to switch to Wayland once plasma 6 was released. Prior to that it was completely unusable for me. Since then I had one issue earlier this year where multi monitor detection would hard lock my computer if I changed inputs on the monitor but didn't update display settings first.
