Ubuntu has enabled Wayland by default since version 21.04, so unless you explicitly opted into an X11 desktop session you are already on Wayland.

Wayland is not enabled by default if your system has Nvidia graphics card.

Incredible, Is Nvidia still having issues with Wayland ? It has been, what, 10 years ?

We continue to complain about it all the time... but like most Wayland heads, you stick it in the sand and ignore us and keep saying it's ready! :(
