Haha I appreciate the sleuthing, and thanks for the links! <3

Some of those might be the bugs I experienced, but then again, some of them claim to be fixed years ago, and I was running a fully up-to-date NixOS unstable (rolling release) system.

Reporting an issue in an OSS project is a great freedom that users have, but it involves so many steps, especially in these complex environments, that it's often not worth the effort. Even if you manage to figure out which component is misbehaving, to search if there's an already open bug report, and take the time to create one if not, there's a chance of running into hostility and WONTFIX responses.

All it took was logging in, launching Firefox and playing a video. If these issues were so obvious in 5 minutes, I couldn't imagine how many there would be had I used the system for longer. Switching back to Xorg was the quickest fix to my workflow. Besides, I figured that since these issues were so obvious that they were already known. I was just befuddled as to why they remain so prominent given that Wayland is already 15 years old, and there are mainstream distros offering it as an alternative, or switching altogether to it.
