It's the default for most of the parent/child distros.

Wayland Only (default, installed):

* Fedora

* Ubuntu

* openSUSE

* Arch Linux

* Pop!_OS

Wayland (default)

* Debian

* SUSE

I use Discord on Wayland every day and have for at least 3 years. Both AMD 9060 and NVIDIA 4060 (and an AMD RX 580).

The distro you use can have a huge impact on your OOTB experience.

Arch doesn't even install a kernel by default, in which possible way does it default to Wayland?

Oops! Sorry I was working in a sheet that had the variants listed and I must have shifted a cell!

Arch clearly doesn't have any "defaults" there. Manjaro is on X11.

SteamOS on Steam Deck does however use Wayland.
