wayland in my opinion is still many years off from being stable. i don’t know why gnome and kde switched to it as default. i have lots of issues with it currently on arch install. my advice would be switch back to xorg.
hopefully the freedesktop people can get their stuff together and fix this buggy and bloated software.
