Ok, but what about Nvidia GPUs? Those are what the the vast majority of gamers use.
Nvidia has been kind of a mess for me on Wayland, especially the lastest 545 drivers. I just switched to AMD and literally all my issues disappeared, including one I thought was a KDE plasma bug
Looks like KDE Plasma 6 is going to default to Wayland, so I'll probably give it another shot when it comes out (in Feb I think?). I'm currently on GNOME because of weird KDE Wayland issues on my AMD card (maybe it's no longer a thing, IDK). I don't have a strong preference between them, but my kids use my computer and I think KDE is probably easier for them.
From my experience default KDE is more windows-like so it can help with transition for Windows users
My kids don't have any experience with Windows, they've only used ChromeOS (at school) and Linux (my computers, one has Plasma 5, and the other has GNOME).
But yeah, it feels kinda Windows like with the start menu and whatnot.
