I switched from Qubes OS to Fedora+Flatpak+Opensnitch. Couldn't make it to run Wayland on my hybrid GPU system (Nvidia). QubesOS drained battery very quickly and since graphics is afaik software rendered, I've gotten into problems in watching HD videos (e. g. a lot of dropped frames on Youtube).


> graphics is afaik software rendered

Yes, this is accurate (for security reasons). However you still should not have serious problems with Youtube: https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/hd-video-playback-on-qubes-os-o... (see also a few next posts).

How to fix it if you do have problems: https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/improve-video-playback-performa...

Why did you need Wayland on Qubes?


I meant Wayland on Fedora for better application isolation.
