Covered in his latest blog post is the state of Wayland/XWayland with various multimedia programs, different open-source games, GNOME and LibreOffice programs, Chromium and Firefox, multiple programming IDEs / editors, and more.
He concluded the part two blog post with, "I can’t test all Linux applications, but the most of them works good in this review. Several applications have issues with scrolling and freezes.
