Sway does not have software rendering at all, IIRC llvmpipe software OpenGL wouldn't work either. So if sway is running, it's accelerated. Run sway with the --verbose flag and read the output, it will show the used renderer. (In the virtual console… but you'll see it after quitting sway)

In xorg, compositing is external and done by your WM/DE. I'm not sure if KDE does it out of the box, maybe you need to turn it on. Though it would be odd if it didn't do it by default, it's 2019…
