It's a couple of years old, but this post on "Why I'm not going to switch to Wayland yet."[1] summarizes some of the concerns I have about switching to Wayland:

"at the moment there are several types of applications that not only don't work in wayland, but would be very difficult, or impossible to work natively in all major wayland compositors.

Examples (in order of importance to me):

  * Programmatic output configuration (xrandr, arandr, etc.)
  * CLI clipboard access (xsel, xclip)
  * Third party app launcher/window switcher (rofi, dmenu, albert, docky).
  * Clipboard managers (parcellite, klipper, Gpaste, clipman, etc.)
  * Third party screen shot/capture/share (shutter, OBS, ffmpeg, import, peek, scrot, VNC, etc.)
  * Color picker (gpick, gcolor3, kcolorchooser)
  * xdotool

Until Wayland has all these (and more) and they are as stable and feature-rich as the existing apps on X, I will not willingly switch to Wayland.

There are few replacements:

* https://github.com/ReimuNotMoe/ydotool

OBS / ffmpeg and etc. should get integrated with Pipewire I think for screen capture and the like? But I'm not sure how far that progressed.
