Wayland has been enabled by default on Fedora for nearly 4 years, on Debian for 1.5 years, and on RHEL/CentOS for about the same (the GNOME editions in each case).

Sway has been working great for quite some time as well.

KDE has been lagging behind, but is finally at a place where it will be usable by the next release.
