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

I am requesting information not putting pressure on anyone.

My bad, I must have been a bit cranky when I first read your post this morning. Anyways, there is experimental support, my dm proposes an experimental cinnamon wayland session and usually that means that the devs are seeking feedback. If the places with discussions on the topic seem to be quiet, it means that not enough people do test it and give feedback. Doing your part can indeed accellerate the process.
