If anyone wants to give an ELI5 or a link to a video that ELI5 I’d be incredibly thankful
I swear that all the stuff I find is like super in depth technical stuff that just loses me in no time flat

In my experience, it’s way worse than Xorg. With Wayland, I cannot turn off my laptop screen but keep the external display, and having both monitors on at once can cause crashes when GPU acceleration is needed (videos or games). Somehow this is nVidia’s fault, yet it works on Xorg with the same hardware.
If a driver doesn’t behave properly, the things that are built on top of it won’t work properly either. When that misbehaving driver is not open source, you’re at the mercy of the vendor… It’s common knowledge for over a decade that nVidia drivers are problematic with Linux - especially on laptops. Bad drivers are entirely nVidia’s fault.
I’ve been running Wayland with Intel graphics on my laptop and my desktop runs a Radeon. I’ve had 0 Wayland issues in the past years.
I use a laptop to run home console, and its display can turn off just fine.
I was intentionally vague in my response, since I don’t want to confuse the reader. Specifically, the improvement I was referring to is when you run two monitor with different refresh rate or different scaling factor.
