Did you have any problems with copy-paste? For me copy-paste was completely broken.

Yes, copy/paste between Firefox (on Wayland) and other apps was broken but was fixed in firefox-63.0.1-5.fc29.[1][2]

Copy-paste works, but primary selection does not, it was added to wayland-protocols just few days ago. Drag-and-drop also seems to be broken, I cannot drag urls to the terminal, for example.
Hmm, a few weeks ago Ctrl-C Ctrl-V didn't even work on Fedora 29. With the latest Nightly everything seems to work fine on Wayland, even dragging a URL to GNOME Terminal.

Also, without XWayland I have no artifacts when scrolling fast in long documents. Very nice :-)
