From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

well I was looking for a forum to start cataloging it but off the top of my head:
copyq
gnome-pie
miss assigning xwayland
not recognizing USB c monitors seen by xrandr
window taring
sudo commands
executable binaries
lots more
Wayland is breaking sudo?
Probably something like “sudo this_gui_app”. This is not possible under Wayland. But who knows? This guy is being as vague as possible with details.
copyq has some guidance for wayland issues:

...but some things such as global shortcuts may depend on your choice of compositor, GNOME has no support at all for example.
It seems some people transition easily to wayland and some do not, it really depends on your setup unfortunately. Maybe it'll get easier over time.
Yeah it's gotta be your install... I have none of those issues on fedora 43
For a gnome-pie replacement, try Kando
