> Yes, not every random app and feature you use on Xorg will have a Wayland equivalent. Deal with it.

In general this sentence is why the Year of Desktop Linux won't come in this millennia. Not only XOrg vs Wayland. Many such cases. Sad!

Xorg vs Wayland isn't a thing because Wayland is the replacement for Xorg.

Except a lot of things don't work with it. For example shortcuts.

Which is why people keep using xorg… wayland is NOT a drop in replacement.

Keyboard shortcuts or desktop shortcuts?

my experience with kwyboard shortcuts on sway/gnome is that they're implemented differently on a wm-by-wm basis
