I feel like opinionated linux distros that already firmly moved to wayland must already exist, but I haven’t really seriously researched this. KaOS, maybe?
I didn’t really have the patience for distro-shopping in recent years. I favor keyboard-driven setups, and the few times a distro offers that out of the box the shortcuts and config files are different enough from mine that it’s annoying to get into it.

I recently checked out KaOS’ new iso with niri. It did look neat, but it had exactly the issues I just described. The window management shortcuts were unfamiliar, it took me like 15 minutes to figure out how to change keyboard layouts (in part because the general presentation suggested that there was probably a GUI method, but there wasn’t), I couldn’t even make dark mode work easily.
I could probably make niri work for me if I really wanted, but it’s a lot of work for no real benefit. I’ll probably just end up moving to sway in a couple of years when it becomes really unreasonable to keep using X11, since that one is actually designed to feel similar to the window manager I’m currently using (i3).
