Ah sorry, I got it backward. Nvidia is dragging their asses on implementing “implicit” sync, so Wayland devs and nvidia ended up with a compromise and implemented the explicit sync protocol. IMO it’s just another example of Nvidia doing whatever they please and forcing everyone to do it their way or highway.
By dragging their asses you mean adding it it their very first beta driver just a few weeks after it was merged into Wayland/Xwayland?
