Public bug reported:

The Ubuntu universe has a big Wayland problem!

What does that mean?

So a lot of packages in the Universe repository are not compiled with
Wayland support which is really bad and would lead to bad performance
after 21.04 comes out.

Here are the following packages that I detected with wrong compilation:

telegram-desktop (Wayland support work with snap version)
qdirstat
vlc
kiwix
firefox (everything works fine with this env variable set:"MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1")
