I use PipeWire on my desktop and laptop, and its doing a better job than pulse ever did.
That said, I've had daily issues with it, from it slowing video playback (weirdly, by about 10 seconds over 20 minutes or so, only noticable when watching something synchronized with someone else), over crackling noises with speakers when no audio is playing, to straight up lags and skips every few seconds with certain devices.
Audio on linux is a complete joke, and I'm glad pipewire is there to tackle it.
