I am aware of the switches you can pass to each app to make it use native wayland, but is there any way to do it globally?

      Like X11, xwayland is not as secure as a pure Wayland environment but I think it’s important to note that hundreds of thousands of desktop Linux users are likely still running X11.

      So, in my opinion, it is not ideal to run xwayland but still completely acceptable for most users who don’t have special security requirements.

        I still run x11 because some of my apps just don’t work on wayland, specifically terminal apps for some reason

      They are kinda choppy, when compared to native Wayland apps and screensharing from an app, running in xwayland doesn’t really work…

      Bad is relative. But I have some problems with scaling on a HiDPI display with some Electron apps. I think that might be solved if they were Wayland native.
