What’s the current landscape like for gaming with KDE Wayland? I’ve heard that recently VSync can be disabled and that Wine has better support for Wayland nowadays.

Whats your experience like with this setup?

    I would say the exact opposite if you’re playing competitive FPS. Xorg tears and is super jittery like a motherfucker. Wayland is the only thing that properly drives my 240hz monitor.

      Generally tearing in competitive titles doesn’t matter, but latency does. And right now, x11 still wins on that front. Wayland feels terrible in the competitive shooters I play.
