The fact is, if my favourite game doesn't run on Linux, Linux is dead to me.
Similarly to some software that has no direct alternatives.

- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Wayland nvidia is completely busted
I use Wayland with Nvidia (proprietary beta driver) every day (including for applications running over Wine) and have no issues.
So while some may still have issues, I certainly wouldn't call it "completely busted".
