Off the top of my head the tools that are either completely broken or partially broken on Wayland that work fine on X11.
* Google Meet * Zoom * MS Teams * Slack screen sharing * Discord screen sharing and then there are the various broken desktop sharing apps: * TeamViewer * AnyDesk * Chrome Remote Desktop * x11vnc * many more and then there are the various niche products for the developer community with smaller communities but are nonetheless startups who see a market opportunity: * Pop (https://pop.com/) -- works only on X11 for now, seems they are having issues with implementing Wayland, especially screen control * Tuple (https://tuple.app/) -- they are building Linux support now, and only on X11 * Pair-programming tools built into products like JetBrains IDEs I don't think the user population represented by these and others is shrinking at all -- on the contrary, it's growing by leaps and bounds, and any one just the top 6 above likely boasts user communities thousands of times larger than the data scientists who use rstudio-server and Jupyter via browser.
