The beta that is available on the download page is working with Wayland!!  It's a very nice update overall too, not just the Wayland add on

The library appears to be in active development as as per this tweet

Bolton is aware of it.

So this might be happening some time this year or the next. Not that I care too much -- I ended up putting enough money aside over the years to buy enough screens I no longer need Synergy lol.
