Hi Nate,

After talking to you, I decided to give wayland another try. In my surprise, it
worked/supported most of the main apps I use daily and my overall use case with
exception of some of the touchpad gestures that I previously configured using
touchegg obviously. 
Overall I would say it was a positive experience compared to my previous one.
However, soon as I switched it back to X11, all the kwin related desktop
effects/animations were gone with some unfamiliar errors. Following is what I
get when I manually try to restart kwin: 

"kwin_xkbcommon: XKB: inet:323:58: unrecognized keysym "XF86EmojiPicker"
kwin_xkbcommon: XKB: inet:324:58: unrecognized keysym "XF86Dictate"
Module 'org.kde.kwin.decoration' does not contain a module identifier directive
- it cannot be protected from external registrations.

I spent all day googling each one of the errors to debug them but I simply
couldn't figure it out myself and what's more frustrating is that those who had
similar issues all seem to pretty much gave up on their kde. I just cannot
believe what I got myself into just to get the overview swiping working. All I
remember is I switched to wayland and tried overview and few other apps that I
use daily for less than 10 minutes. How is this possible? I can't even recover
it using timeshift, backintime, plasmaconfigsaver. The only thing I couldn't
try was restoring the whole disc with clonezilla image i cloned while back bc
it turned out the image was broken unfortunately. Now I'm pretty much stuck
with some metacity look&feel WM. :(

In addition, I noticed I can't even log back to wayland anymore either.
Actually it's even worse than X11 now for some reason. It only gives me a black
screen for about 10 secs then brings me back to SDDM. I tried pretty much
everything I can do before I finally decided to message you. Sorry to bother
you again but I would appreciate it very much if you can somehow guide me
through resolving this issue as I'm still a newbie in linux world. 

Thank you in advance.
