Pipewire and wayland are not the default on Debian 11. You can use wayland on debian 11 fine, but pipewire is still not officially supported (https://wiki.debian.org/PipeWire).

While Pipewire is not default, Wayland absolutely is and has been the defalt on distros defaulting to GNOME for a very long time, unless the distro patched gnome to not do so (like debian did with Stretch)

True for debian >=10:

>>As this is the default Debian desktop environment, Wayland is used by default in Debian 10 and newer, older versions use Xorg by default.
