I switched to Wayland recently (when updating to KDE6) and am experiencing heavy tearing which wasn't there on Xorg, as well as other issues (cannot copy images to the clipboard, global hotkeys no longer work).

Somehow this is nVidia's fault (this happens on my two laptops, one with Intel+nVidia, the other with Intel only).

in which apps? anything that runs under xwayland is broken under nvidia at the moment because nvidia don't and can't implement implicit sync which is required for that, resulting in terrible graphical corruption. wait for a few months until explicit sync patches arrive

Works on My Machine™. sounds like a bug on plasma 6 to me, check their bugzilla and whatnot. or switch back to 5.27, it's not like you're morally obliged to do plasma 6 "stable release" beta testing lmao

the other with Intel only

does graphical corruption happen there too?
