      XFCE is being developed slower than a sleeping sloth, but it’s also rocksolid and does what it needs to do. I have confidence that whenever they include Wayland, everything will work.

        It’s been working for me on FireFox on most video conference sites. Could be smoother, but it’s serviceable

          While I love Wayland and think it’s far superior to x.org for general multi-monitor use, I still cannot screenshare with discord. I recently setup a streaming environment as well with obs and it doesn’t work with Wayland either. Until that gets worked out I’m using x.org and no I’m not using a third party discord app, that’s against ToS and I have a couple of servers that I manage. Creating a new account for me isn’t that easy.

            Completely understandable. It’s a shame Linux is still a non-priority for most large communication apps. If Windows suddenly changed their display protocols, all of them would try to implement it fully in a matter of a few days, but for Wayland support they’ve dragged their feet for years.

    I fuckin’ hate these types of posts, rejoice in linux not divide. I get that it’s a meme but it gets real boring real quick when x >>> y starts happening. Please don’t make this like the linux on reddit.

      After Canonical dropped Gnome 2 for Ubuntu, MATE has been my saviour.
