XFCE vs KDE

[Moltke]

On Fedora KDE has been rife with glitches, according to some of the blogs I read and a some posts on Diaspora*. It may be fine on Ubuntu-based distros, though.

I use KDE on 3 systems: Debian Bullseye/Testing, openSUSE Leap 15.2, they both work great. In openSUSE I'm using Wayland, and sure it isn't perfect just yet, but it's quite usable; responsiveness and functionality seems to be balanced.  I also installed Fedora 34, the KDE spin which uses Wayland by default, and while my experience hasn't been "hassle-free", it works fine most of the time.
