I was going to post something else when I realized all my excitement when I first read the 4.14 roadmap years ago has turned into bitterness and that I'm being overly negative so all I'm going to say is "I wish y'all well. Have fun with your new release ".

So basically, this release does open the door for Wayland support... but I'd guess it's still a long way off. Going by how long it's taken Gnome and KDE to fully implement Wayland, and how long it's taken XFCE to get this release out, it's hard to see them having something usable _before_ 2022...

Originally posted by soulsource View PostYeah, Gnome cannot compete with Xfce memory-wise, simply because Gnome Sheel needs desktop compositing, which requires rather big render targets to work. On Xfce Compositing is optional.
