This page tracks the Wayland showstoppers throughout the stack. Showstoppers are major bugs, or missing features affecting the Wayland session but not the X11 session. This is part of KDE's Wayland goal.

True Showstoppers

These are the issues that must be fixed before we can recommend Wayland by default.

Session management

KWin/compositing/window management

Plasma

Upstream issues, or KDE issues blocked by required upstream changes

Specifically NVIDIA issues


Non-showstoppers

Quality-of-life issues, annoyances, problems with workarounds, etc.

Session management

KWin/compositing/window management

Plasma

Qt


Fixed upstream in Qt 6

These are fixed in Qt 6 but not backportable or backported to Qt 5.
