I've been keeping an eye on the github and the board and it doesn't seem to be moving that much. We're nearly halfway through 2025 and I thought the plan was for Wayland to be supported on cinnamon early 2026.

Wondered if anyone had any more insight into progress/blockers/delays

There are things that fundamentally don't work in Wayland by design. One of them is injecting synthetic events into other applications, and at least 2 of the applications I use all the time need it (password manager-like apps that "type" secure codes into arbitrary text fields).
