GNOME plans to phase out X11 for a Wayland-only future

I recently installed Fedora 38 on my desktop after years of using Opensuse Tumbleweed. It came with Wayland out of the box and that was my first time using Wayland.

After the switch, the major issue that I noticed was typing when searching for files in VSCode was very slow. Like a solid 1 or 2 seconds slow for the characters at the end to appear or to disappear after pressing backspace. The title of the window kept flickering as well as switching between the currently open filename and the folder name. It was very weird.

Some amount of Googling lead me to a couple of issues on VSCode's GitHub that attributed the root cause to either Electron or Nvidia misbehaving with Wayland.

Switching from Wayland to X11 solved the issue for me.
