Hi, > I think the default should be reconsidered.
I second that since I always refuse to use Wayland, due to 1. Gnome's keyboard configuration under wayland is definitely rubbish. I need extremely high keyboard repeat rate and short latency: xset r rate 160 160 The fastest repeat rate feels like 10 times slower than my preference. I didn't manage to find out the CLI way to enforce an extremely high key repeat rate under wayland. 2. redshift doesn't work under wayland. There seems to be no CLI program available for such purpose. 3. I don't know whether this has been improved, but in the past the mouse cursor latency was very obvious.
