    Wayland has a ton of issues on Plasma including but not limited to (Not including NVIDIA Issues) (Note that many of these will be fixed in Plasma 6):

    • Applications don’t prompt to save unsaved work, causing data loss
    • No session restore for native Wayland windows
    • When the compositor crashes or restarts, non-Qt apps are killed — work is ongoing to fix this
    • Not all Sticky Keys options work
    • No color management or support for changing Gamma
    • KFontView is unable to open or install a font
    • Session-restored windows go on the wrong screens and virtual desktops
    • When dragging files, to trigger a specific result, you have to hold down a modifier key before you start dragging, not after
    • Installed Chrome apps are grouped together with Chrome windows in Icon-Only Task Manager
    • Global Menu is broken for non-Qt apps
    • When using a Chromium-based browser in native Wayland mode, dragging an image to the desktop creates a sticky note out of it
