Last time I had a quick look, zink did seem far from being finished, I mean very far away.

The main issues for xwayland+zink are the middle ground applications: those which are x11/vulkan3D without wayland support, if I am not mistaken, like shadow of the tombraider, metro exodus games, etc (even though I would not play anymore those games).

ohohoh... I am going to ask if valheim has a working/tested wayland backend while I am thinking about it.

You probably haven't looked at it for a while. It's a conformant OpenGL implementation. Zink is now the default for Nvidia GPUs in Mesa, replacing Nouveau.

Any chance on AMD GPUs? Zink GLX is only for xwayland?
