Just do yourself a favor and stick with using what already works. Don't upgrade to the new shiny thing unless you already know the reasons why you want to.

Among all the other technical issues, Wayland devs have an attitude issue. Users asked for fractional scaling for years and were faced with flat refusals and insulting quips from the wayland developers. The only reason they've added it now is because Valve asked them for it. Wayland devs think users are worms and corporations are gods.

The thing is, the old way is also clearly broken. For me, X11 has always been a slow, stuttery, screen-tearing mess across a range of hardware, while Wayland is much better at shipping complete frames on time during normal desktop use. So it's a choice between the broken old thing and the broken new thing.
