i'm still remarkably happy with fedora's kde on my laptop, but i'm also very content with the current state of wayland (with obvious caveats about use cases and personal idiosyncrasies).
i'm running xfce on a remote ubuntu box at work though, using rdp for connections, and it's, well, fine. lacks some things i like in full DEs, but it's perfectly adequate for the job.
(both beat fucking windows 11 when it comes to being usable for me)
