Issues with X11 apps on wayland

I've recently made the switch to using the Wayland on my system, and while the overall experience has been pretty smooth, But I've encountered a few issues with X11 apps like spotify, steam or games on wine. After searching around on wiki forums etc. I didn't really find anything that would help me with that.

Probably the best way to show what I mean is to include video of my issue

Also, the issue does not happen only on games and software running through wine, native apps also have this issue, like terraria running native through Xwayland
Weird thing is that often turning vsync on fixes it.

Known issue with xwayland on nvidia currently, can be somewhat mitigated with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg … t-sync-git --- but that's only properly fixed once the general rest of the stack gets explicit sync merged.

Well i guess then i can't do anything for now, tried explicit sync aur package nothing really changed for me
