I ❤️ xfce, dying for Wayland. Wish I knew how to ninja together xfce Wayland. As most apps are now compatible.
please no, XFCE is my last refuge for machines too old to support Wayland
you understand that you can still use x11 with KDE or gnome right?
They’re not killing X11 support, don’t worry. They’re just expanding to Wayland support.
I am running Wayland on my 2013 MacBook Air. Joe old is your hardware?
GTS 450 lol
A lot of Wayland compositors have a GLES 2.0 renderer which should be supported by ancient GPUs. If you try Vulkan based compositors you might be out of luck.
If I am not mistaken the GTS 450 should be more than powerful enough especially by Linux standards.

Why should it be slower?

In my experience, projects going to Wayland actually improves performance and system resource usage. I got around 200Mb RAM back, when I switched from Qtile X11 to Qtile Wayland. 900Mb on XOrg, 700Mb on Wayland. These are with the same configuration and the same programs being autostarted.

CPU overhead
I highly doubt you can conjure up a Wayland compositor that consumes more than 1% of your CPU, even eye-candy nightmares like Hyprland will not have any significant CPU usage.

What do you mean by that? I’ve been using it in Plasma and haven’t had issues with it. Then again my use case might be different.

I don’t.

Other way around
I hope there are a few dank wallpapers for the meme
Blaze it
IIRC, they expect to have it released in the first half of December if there are no issues or delays.

Wanted to join the wallpaper contest but it has to be only and only through a Gitlab account, and the requeriments are rather limiting - and, specially, not a fan of contests that are decided by thumbs-up (or heart emojis, like in this case)
did they release a changelog?
