Wayland is a protocol, you still need a display server to support it. Mir is a display server that supports wayland. You are running GNOME on Weston (another display server that supports wayland).
I am running GNOME on Wayland where gnome-shell is the compositor with Wayland support.

I mean sure, I disliked GNOME 3 back in the days when it was all new and I used GNOME 2. But after a couple of releases and refinements its gotten really good, especially with extensions such as Arc menu, dash-to-dock, dash-to-panel, etc.
I like GNOME, on overall it is great. That said, I don't like the dash (it is rather slow, and changes context from what I am working to all new screen), I much prefer using an extension so I don't have to use the dash.
As for Wayland, I still use X as I see no point in using Wayland yet when Firefox, Chrome, GIMP and Electon-based apps (Atom, Spotify, VS Code, Skype, etc) don't yet support Wayland. However it seems promising. Ultimately X or Wayland won't matter, its not something I will even know or interact with in any way.

Mir 1.0 Released For "Next-Generation of Graphical Solutions"
Phoronix: Mir 1.0 Released For "Next-Generation of Graphical Solutions"
As we were expecting over the last few days, the long-awaited release of Mir 1.0 is now available. It's certainly a different beast now than when "Mir 1.0" was talked about in the past now that it's focused on providing Wayland support...
