Unrelated but how does one forward apps over SSH with Wayland?

I'm going to guess over X11 with Xwayland. Or does anyone else have any better solution?

That only shows you X11 windows. Xwayland has no idea about the content of native Wayland windows (i.e. at least all applications that use Qt5 or GTK3). The most likely solution IMO is a VNC server.

gnome-remote-desktop for Gnome on Fedora, it uses Wayland's API and VNC, so it works fairly well.

ssh -X still works thanks to Xwayland.
