Probably the best thing to do is wait until Kubuntu 24.04 is out next 
month (April 25th, unless there are delays), and upgrade to it. Kubuntu 
24.04 will feature updated Mesa drivers (important for Wayland support), 
the latest KDE Plasma 5 release (it won't ship with Plasma 6 sadly), and 
upgraded everything else to make the Wayland experience better.

It's also going to matter what graphic card you have. If you are using 
an Nvidia card, then Wayland support is poor all around even with new 
cards and updated drivers, no matter what. If you are using Intel or AMD 
graphics, you will be fine,
