Exciting stuff, personally we are going to hold off until they have full functionality and get rid of potential bugs and we're sure the distro we use will probably agree. However, we're excited for the future of Xfce and finally ditching X.
It isn't ditching X, just adding Wayland support. Which is cool IMO.
Yes, we meant we could finally ditch X.
Rock on!
What distro(s) are you using that you recommend? I've been running plain Ubuntu for a couple years, but want to dual-boot something else for fun/ change of pace.
gentoo, but I don't recommend it unless you like getting into the configuration and waiting for things to compile, sometimes for hours.
As someone relatively new to Linux (been using as my daily driver for a couple of years now, but I still feel like a novice), I've been considering tinkering with Gentoo, and it low-key feels like considering starting using hard drugs.
If you read all the handbook and the wiki for specific things, you should be okay!
Haha, yeah I've done Gentoo a couple times before, back when I was younger and didn't mind spending hours tinkering with it. :P
I have played with fedora on the computer of someone I know recently and I have to say it is a great distro. Though if you want it but made for gaming then try Nobara (made by the person behind proton-ge-custom ).
I've never heard of Nobara, thanks for the recommendation!
Basically, its a customization of Fedora Workstation with Steam, Proton GE, and some system tweaks for better gaming support.
If it's free and open source and it's also software, it can be discussed here. Subcommunity of Technology.
