Weird because Wayland is enabled by default, if Firefox detects that your system is ready.

    For me, it’s that everything feels just slightly smoother, applications open somewhat quicker and typing feels more ‘direct’ (less latency).

    Certainly nothing revolutionary for now, so if you actually have to jump through many hoops, I wouldn’t bother.
    My distro pre-installs a Wayland session for my DE, so to switch, I just have to log out, select the other session and log back in.

      Yeah easy switching back and forth makes the transition smooth. I use Wayland 99% of the time, but if I happen to run into problems I can just logout and start X.

        Good point. I’ve certainly had my moments where some application behaved slightly differently and it annoyed me, so I simply went back to X11 until that was fixed or I had a workaround or didn’t need to use that application anymore.
