There weren't out in time for yesterday's formal GNOME 3.34.1 point release, but GNOME Shell and Mutter have out their prominent point releases today that are exciting on the correction front...

Michael there GNOME Shell paragraph is duplicated.

The Wayland clipboard handling in 3.34 is pretty broken: you can't copy screenshots to the clipboard after text. That's pretty annoying.

If You want the best Wayland desktop then go Fedora.

If You want the best X desktop then go Ubuntu.

Fedora lets you choose GNOME X.org at login..

I think the first word of the article is supposed to be "They"

Britoid just like Ubuntu let you choose Wayland...

It’s not about choice. It’s about testing the desktop. Some distributions actually do proper testing rather than rolling.

The X.org version is tested.. Fedora developers are even the ones still maintaining X.org.

Well, dunno about that but Gnome 3.34 is working like a damn charm on ArchLinux be it either Wayland or X.Org, so far neither Wine, Java, Qt or GTK2/3 apps has shown any glitch or anything worth mentioning.

Note: 3.34.1 just upgraded and still working like a champ here.

Note: May not be possible some of the famous Ubuntu patches all around is affecting Wayland? and that is way it works properly at Fedora and Co? because ArchLinux is as rolling as it gets and here is totally fine

Note that the Arch GNOME maintainer is pretty closely involved with the GNOME developers, and often includes extra patches in the Arch packages, which helps a lot since there's a history of performance improvements that took years to merge.

I use Arch BTW.

One of the only thing that prevents me from using GNOME on Arch full time is the lack of flicker-free boot, it also requires plymouth-gdm from the AUR which I couldn't get to work.

Once you go flicker-free it's difficult not to go back :P
