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!

XFCE doesn't support Wayland yet, however a lot of the components will run under it. They've got a tracker on their site.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
