Being able to restart the Wayland compositor without killing your apps is frickin awesome!!!

Cool! Maybe I'll switch back to KDE when it releases. I'm currently on GNOME because KDE 5 Wayland crashes on startup, and if I can get it to start, it hangs. Unfortunately, getting my monitors to refresh properly is more important than using KDE.

Looks like it's only a few months away! I'm excited to play with it!

That sounds weird. Did you report this bug? Wayland on KDE 5 is quite stable in my experience.

No, maybe I'll try it again, it has been a few months.

Though with the focus being on KDE 6, maybe it's better for me to just try that out instead.
