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.

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but I run PopOs with Wayland and it works great. Certain games after playing a lot of hours after a few days will make it sort of freeze up for a second here and there. If you log out and back in, it's all good. It would be only complaint but not a big enough deal to complain about.
Note that you need to enable wayland in some config file
True, it's really easy though. I watched a video on it, it took me five minutes and I was pretty new to Linux. I still am.
Ngl I feel like I don't want a ubuntu base as my distro
That's fair. I used nobara for about a month, based off of Fedora. It worked good, but my sound quit working and I really missed the way I could set up workspaces on popos.
I use a arch based distro called cachyos i used to use regular fedora ngl i prefer arch cause of their aur and am not installing regular arch bcs its hard
