Yeah, I agree that most are on X11 still. That said, by this time next year and probably by the end of the year once explicit sync has landed in most packages of relevance, most distros that do annual releases will switch the default to wayland on all hardware.
A lot of hardware has nvidia gpus and wayland is finally pretty stable on both of the 2 major DEs. A lot of work in the last couple years by DEs, toolkits and the wayland protocol has moved the needle quite a bit.
I disagree. Ubuntu has used Wayland as default since 22.04, and it’s the most used distro out there.
Debian Stable is on Wayland by default. So is Fedora, OpenSUSE, and Arch if you install one of the big DE’s (which have a combined usage share of over 80%).
Actually most distros with Gnome or KDE will boot into a wayland session by default.
Mint is the only big one still on X11.
They would only be defaulting on supported hardware. Nvidia added support last year, but there were still external issues like explicit sync and also Plasma 5 was problematic. Plasma 6 is a giant leap comparatively and only came out in February. There is a lot of Nvidia dGPUs out there. Steam surveys have had it around 70% of steam installs and that includes Intel and AMD apus as well as the dGPUs.
