Perhaps Wayland is to blame?

no its not. wayland strangely works flawlessly on amd, such a big mystery.

On the other hand, nvidia hardware -unlike amd's- never crashed my PC.

So I guess the situation is not simply black & white but a bit more nuanced.

So if I design something that works with one vendor but not the other then its their fault?

[la_oveja]

wayland is a protocol that uses the gbm api.

amd uses the gbm properly, nvidia is half cooked and previously used eglstreams instead of because they did not like gbm. reality is every compositor just uses gbm.
