Since I still don ´t like #wayland (everytime I decide to use something is not working), and my favourite DE has decided support for #xorg I fully switched to #sonicde a #kde desktop environment that will be focused on supporting xorg!

SonicDE Launches as a KDE-Based Desktop for X11 Holdouts
｢ The project’s main goal is to maintain compatibility with X.Org Server for as long as possible and to adopt new XLibre features when feasible. Plus, to serve those who still rely on a full X11 session and wish to retain that experience in a KDE-based environment ｣

SonicDE Launches as a KDE-Based Desktop for X11 Holdouts
SonicDE is a new community project focused on preserving KDE’s X11 desktop components as upstream Plasma moves fully to Wayland.Bobby Borisov (Linuxiac)

We forked the #KDE Plasma Login Manager. It now runs on #X11, drops privileges after init, and supports #systemd-free too. We tested it on Artix Linux with OpenRC, CachyOS with systemd, and on the #FreeBSD-based GhostBSD. #SonicDE sonic-login-manager

For my shop machine, I'm now actively testing Debian 14 Testing w/ Xlibre and SonicDE. So far, so good. I use this machine for client work and it also gets to be my guinea pig for testing drawing tablet workflows. Both native Xlibre (via wacom) and Gaomon's proprietary driver work. I'm impressed with how snappy SonicDE is - first time using it today. Great work folks‼️
