Blaze it
did they release a changelog?
IIRC, they expect to have it released in the first half of December if there are no issues or delays.
I ❤️ xfce, dying for Wayland. Wish I knew how to ninja together xfce Wayland. As most apps are now compatible.
- please no, XFCE is my last refuge for machines too old to support Wayland
  
  you understand that you can still use x11 with KDE or gnome right?
  
  They're not killing X11 support, don't worry. They're just expanding to Wayland support.
  
  I am running Wayland on my 2013 MacBook Air. Joe old is your hardware?
- Xfce is mostly used on older hardware. Dying to see how many times slower it'll become on Wayland. I'm guessing 3x.
  
  In my experience, projects going to Wayland actually improves performance and system resource usage. I got around 200Mb RAM back, when I switched from Qtile X11 to Qtile Wayland. 900Mb on XOrg, 700Mb on Wayland. These are with the same configuration and the same programs being autostarted.
  
  Why should it be slower?
  
  Other way around
  
  blasphemy! Off with ur head! 🤣
I hope there are a few dank wallpapers for the meme
Wait but it hasn't been 2 years yet!
