Not sure what you're talking about. Haven't noticed any adverse negative effects.

It's super nice to have a desktop without any tearing though.

Not sure what xdotool is.

I'm using sway[1] with libinput. I haven't had a need to use external tools beyond what they support natively.

I have no issues to do screenshots ad-hoc (in fact, I have keybindings to do this, and throw it right in the wayland clipboard).

I do notice that most Xwayland-based programs which tries to do screen-sharing fails spectacularly though.
