So like the title says, I just want to appreciate how good ubuntu+xfce (xubuntu) is. I love the simplicity & how lightweight this distro. There’s no bloat on minimal install, to the point I need to install the essential tools like task manager, music player, image viewer & xarchiver myself lol.
Nvidia driver installed without any problem, I can switch from on demand & performance mode flawlesly using nvidia x server. I also can make L2TP vpn working on xubuntu, dunno why but I’m having problem when using it on debian & win 11.
I’ll try using xubuntu as my daily driver. Wish I’ll never facing any problem in the future, especially about compatibility with ms.office.

I really hope XFCE gets a port to wayland. I love the GTK2 desktops. I am young enough to remember GTK3 dropping when I was in middle school. I just never really liked gnome 3+ but I still use it for my HTPC (gnome works wonders on a TV)
Definitely consider KDE wayland if/when nvidia cards play nicer with that. Gnome is usable but buggy with nvidia but on my system (RTX 2060) KDE does not fair well.
I think XFCE devs started working on the Wayland port. See https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap.
ms. office compatibility is not always that great, with openoffice, libre office etc. depending on the complexity of your files. try using the older office formats like .doc instead of .docx. i have found that to work best when sharing files with ms office users. or run office in a vm
Well, compatibility with the MS office suite on Linux is pretty terrible in my experience. But I’ve used libreoffice for years with zero issues.
