Wayland is nearly done playing catchup, work should dramatically accelerate, the great transition is finally almost over.
All that’s left to get wayland to feature parity with x at this point is an accessibility protocol (which should also allow xdotool stuff to work), gnome is working on one. Once that’s done and released, a bunch of devs will be freed up to work on new stuff.
If we’re being nitpicky there’s also these two:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/216
which will add a proper protocol for global shortcuts (right now the compositors that have implemented it have implemented it with a hack, instead of a proper protocol, extremely minor since pretty much everyone has already functionally figured this out)
and the window positioning protocol:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/18
the last few years of linux development have essentially been defined by technical debt, we’re finally about to shake off those shackles.
