@dataprolet @AbnormalHumanBeing The huge difference is the reaction time of interactive elements (aka the close to realttime behavior). This is all mostly because of the BORE Scheduler .. installing a cachy os bore kernel on a default arch feels nearly the same.

So Wayland + Bore Scheduler it's really feeling crazy good. I would not even want to move back to X11 cause damm it feels "slugish" compared.
