It seems the right way as initrd is loaded from /boot which is already
unencrypted. And this is why update-initramfs filters your /etc/crypttab

Hello,
From what I understand, a year ago, grub2 upstream LUKS2 support was
still only initial and thus not complete:
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55093
So it still probably better to stick with LUKS1 for /boot for now

However, apparently I am now stuck in an X session instead of the
Wayland session I had before.

Are you using Gnome or KDE? (or something else). I ask this as my KDE with the
packaged Nvidia 535 drivers is unable to run Wayland. So for now I use X11 with
