Edit: For context, I'm reacting to this bad article
https://www.spurint.org/journal/2026/07/llms-and-xfwl4
Which is linked on https://xfce.org/ and by one of its developers

My first reaction was "I wonder how normal Xfce is doing?", but that was stupid, as apparently that xfwl4 program is officially part of the Xfce project

After careful consideration, we’ve decided on a meaningful way to use the generous donations from our community: funding longtime Xfce core developer Brian Tarricone to create xfwl4, a brand-new Wayland compositor for Xfce.

And the bad blog post about the LLMs is linked on xfce.org itself.
I guess I can't recommend Xfce anymore.
