From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Uninstalling Xwayland breaks it, you're greeted to a black background and your mouse pointer.
Additionally, as per their own website, it says "The workspaces have been developed for X11 and much functionality relies on X11. To be able to make proper use of Wayland these bits have to be rewritten."
Yeah. xwayland isn't gonna die ever probably, so there's no rush.
Interesting on what distro and when did you try that?
I didnt know that it relied on XWayland but that seems outdated anyways
