Hello there! I was using Wayland for quite a while and things are more or less smooth (NVIDIA proprietary driver). I think it’s time for Manjaro to move to Wayland by default for both Plasma session and SDDM. Here’s small FAQ regarding the change: Q: How can I check if I’m using Wayland? A: Check About this System in System Settings. Q: How could I try Wayland? A: Log out from your session and select a Plasma (Wayland) desktop session for the next log in. Q: What hardware is supported? ...

    They are all planning to move to Wayland, even the OS’s. Gnome first, KDE is still untangling X11 from Kwin, but expected to drop it with KDE7. It is time.

      I agree, but I have concerns about accessibility.

        Plasma 6 was released in Feb 2024, 6.4 is about due. I suspect 7 won’t happen until Plasma and applications need to be ported to Qt 7.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
