Well, thats mostly due to Ubuntu still defaulting to X. Fedora switched to Wayland by default back in 2016 and even RHEL 8 (released 2019) defaults to Wayland.

I feel like that just reinforces my point. Figuring out which random unsupported distro to install on the Linux laptop you bought is even less feasible for non-technical users than choosing a different login session on Ubuntu.
This guy isn't looking for solutions.
Is there a way to use Wayland in Ubuntu? I run Kubuntu, not sure if that comes with Wayland by default.
Ubuntu ships with both, so you just need to choose a different desktop session at login time.
