Yes, I selected ‘Gnome’ when logging in. There is only one more selection, ‘Classical Gnome’. It seems that there were three options before the update.
The “Gnome” option is Gnome on Wayland. To use Gnome with X, one needs to select the “Gnome on Xorg” option.
Only gdm from this list of packages is related here. Instead of downgrading, how about we look at the logs? Please update your system again, create a new user, and login using the default “gnome” option. Does that still result in X?
The new user login still results in X. There are three desktops in /usr/share/xssessions/, gnome-classic, gnome, and gnome-xorg. But there are only two options when logging in, gnome and gnome-classic.
Well, the logs after you’ve logged in would be good for a start. We need to see why it’s using X instead of Wayland. (Wayland hasn’t “disappeared”, but it’s possible that it’s failing to load and is using X as fallback. We need more information before we can diagnose the issue.)

Well, to be usefull, you have to remove the # before Enable=true (I use sudo nano /etc/gdm/custom.conf … put use your favorite editor… maybe gedit)
then log-out, log-in,
then: journalctl -u gdm.service -b 0 -o short-monotonic
It does not seems to contains the interesting part.
I suggest you do:
journalctl -u gdm.service -b 0 -o short-monotonic --no-pager | fpaste
that will send it to a web server for 24 hours… and will generate a link you can copy here.
