Personal issues I’ve had and other questions I’ve seen online. It’s not necessarily wayland itself, it might be how other programs treat screen sharing in it. In any case it’s worth a try if it’s an easy change.

Sorry to say, but no, it’s the most problem solution. I won’t even get into the details, but it’s like a heart replacement, and there are many issues by simple swapping packages from the default in this sense. Everything is shipped expecting whatever distro defaults, and just swapping things out doesn’t work that easily. It sounds like you probably had issues with specific apps that didn’t properly support Wayland, and you couldn’t tell the difference between the entire composition environment, and a single app having issues because it only support X11.
