still looking at Debian over 26.04
will be disappointing because Xubuntu really is just that little bit nicer than stock Xfce, but oh well

The main issue I have had with Debian+XFCE is that a high DPI display will not display the login dialog at the same DPI settings as the desktop environment, which is pretty annoying. Everything else so far has just kind of worked.

i’m still remarkably happy with fedora’s kde on my laptop, but i’m also very content with the current state of wayland (with obvious caveats about use cases and personal idiosyncrasies). i’m running xfce on a remote ubuntu box at work though, using rdp for connections, and it’s, well, fine. lacks some things i like in full DEs, but it’s perfectly adequate for the job. (both beat fucking windows 11 when it comes to being usable for me)
