on a related note, help I'm too used to my i3wm config and now I cant switch to wayland at all, what do I do when xorg gets fully depreciated

[-] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago

I've heard sway is a drop in replacement of i3 for wayland. Only going off what I've heard though since I haven't tried it myself

I've picked xfce on basically every distro I've used and I've hopped through like 30 distro's.

Yeah... but if the packagers dont test it, or ship "stable" KDE Plasma 5.27 which will simply not get most bugfixes (Debian, MX Linux and many more will have these issues for 4 years!) its actually important what Distro you choose.

It is not if

  • your Desktop relies on Xorg garbage which is "stable" and will not evolve
  • your Desktop is minimal and Distros orient their schedule on it (GNOME)

This doesnt apply to

  • KDE
  • Cosmic
  • Hyprland, Sway, Wayfire
  • LXQt getting Wayland support probably

That is actually very true honestly but also needing sonething as stable as Debian, bleeding edge as Arch or right in the middle with Fedora and also which kernel the user made need for their hardware is also a factor in this as well. DEs take priority tho as it's literally the interface you interact with 90% of the time
