Xfce 4.20 released (with Wayland support)

Xfce 4.20 has been released with experimental Wayland support for most of the critical components, whilst a few pieces of functionality aren't working or at least not fully, it can be used by 'advanced' users, but expect bugs and some functionality missing.

Exciting stuff, personally we are going to hold off until they have full functionality and get rid of potential bugs and we're sure the distro we use will probably agree. However, we're excited for the future of Xfce and finally ditching X.
- It isn't ditching X, just adding Wayland support. Which is cool IMO.
  
  Yes, we meant we could finally ditch X.
- What distro(s) are you using that you recommend? I've been running plain Ubuntu for a couple years, but want to dual-boot something else for fun/ change of pace.
  
  gentoo, but I don't recommend it unless you like getting into the configuration and waiting for things to compile, sometimes for hours.
