If you had to choose a #linux distro/de combo for X11, what would it be? I use my personal PC for work and our time tracking software doesn't work on Wayland*. Currently, I am using #endeavouros with #kde but I feel like a change.

• it partially works, the activity measurement feature doesn't work and I was called out on this previously and needed to go back to X11.

I contacted support for the company that creates the software - Hubstaff - and this was their response:

I'm sorry, but it is the expected behavior, our app is designed to function properly only with Xorg. Regretfully, using Wayland is not recommended and it will lead to app issues: https://support.hubstaff.com/screenshot-capture-support-wayland-linux/.

@governorkeagan Your options are limited. Your best shot is probably Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with the Mate desktop. It will go end of life in April but I think you can buy an extended support package.

@governorkeagan

I would think they would be working on a Wayland solution. It is inevitable.
