Fellas,

I’ve been using my current setup on NixOS (Xfce + i3) for about a month now—it’s totally great, but I’ve got some minor things that bother me just a little bit, and I want to see if Wayland does anything for me. I like my combination of a lightweight desktop and tiling windows, so I thought maybe I could do something like MATE + Sway?

Does anyone run anything like this? MATE seems pretty close to Xfce, right?

Happy to hear any thoughts.

Cheers!

    LXQt is already on Qt 6.6 (?) which means native wayland-first support.

    They are not fully done but that will only be a month or so.

    Until then, I dont know really? Will be great!

    Meanwhile MATE and XFCE are on GTK3? Which is not perfectly wayland ready afaik.
