Bug Description
I've seen Gnome Wayland is the new default session, or at least after the update the system started that session, with "Gnome (Xorg)" on the third place in the menu.
Anyway, the mouse is not precise and there is lag in moving it or during xwayland apps execution, the same problem not seen (at this level) on other DEs.
In general I don't think GNOME or KDE Wayland are ready for primetime; input profiles aren't comparable to Xorg ones even on KDE
On the other end, GNOME on Xorg is considerably faster than previous release.
I'm probably reporting this bug:

Good news: I spoke to a Gnome developer about this last week. He says there is a plan to fix it upstream, in due time. But also...
