Krita fund has 0 corporate support
I don't have a huge amount of experience with Krita's Wayland performance because the situation on Wayland is still sub-optimal for art in general. Tablet support has gotten much better, but configuration per-app or tied to the desktop environment still seems to be a big issue. The idea that my tablet configuration might stop working if I switch off of a desktop environment is kind of a non-starter to me. It stinks because I really want to use Wayland, but even as recently as a month ago I tried to see if I could make the switch and couldn't.
Truthfully, if someone has a lot of money to dump around, devoting a few full-time developers or dropping cash on https://github.com/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver would probably go a long way towards encouraging Wayland adoption from artists.
As far as I can tell the issue is not that Wayland can't do tablet control on the same level as X11, it's that the tools built around those capabilities still seem immature. OpenTabletDriver looks very promising but seems to have limited device support, limited in no small part by what tablets the devs have access to (my Cintiq 32 is unlikely to get added any time soon because it is no longer being sold and was expensive and uncommon when it was on the market).
The NVIDIA situation is also a problem, but there's nothing anyone can do about that other than yell at NVIDIA more.

> The text tool is a joke.
The text tool should see considerable improvement soon; the entire text engine got rewritten in the last release, the devs just only had time to get it to feature parity with the existing tools.

Review: Glove80 Ergonomic Keyboard
I believe Wacom is a first class citizen in Linux. They have it in the kernel (https://linuxwacom.github.io/). There is also https://opentabletdriver.net/ that is multi-platform.

Outdated tablet. Which driver if any can I use with my MacBook Pro?
If the Wacom driver is no longer compatible with your system, you might want to consider using a third party driver like OTD (https://opentabletdriver.net/)

You might give OpenTabletDriver a try, it seems like it supports that particular tablet according to their list of supported tablets.

Intuos 4 (PTK-640) and Windows 11, 'your Wacom device is no longer supported'
You can try OpenTabletDriver, a 3rd party open source tablet driver, with support for your tablet. It has many different smoothing algoritms and filters and much more customisability than Wacom drivers, as well as pressure support.

Wacom Intuos S (used) or Wacom Intuos 4 S (used)
The CD is for driver installation, however you don't need it. Drivers used to come on CDs. For Linux, you have two options, both third party: OpenTabletDriver or linuxwacom. For Windows, you might be able to find an older driver version in the archives on Wacom's website, since newer drivers dropped support for it (thanks, Wacom) or you can once again use OpenTabletDriver. Personally, I recommend using OpenTabletDriver for both operating systems. It's much more customisable, gives you higher hover height, allows for more pen compatibility and more.

I was an idiot and installed input-wacom from source when I did not need to. Now my tablet doesn't work. How do I undo the changes I've made?
What's wrong: I bought a new Wacom drawing tablet (Wacom One) and chose to, because I wasn't using my brain, install input-wacom from source even though the tablet was working just fine out of the box.

Linux: Different pressure response for different styluses
Hi! Thank you for your question. Wacom does not offer a Linux driver directly, but there is a Linux driver available for most Wacom devices at the Linux Wacom Project on Github, they also have a Wiki that could be helpful: https://github.com/linuxwacom/input-wacom/wiki
