It is more or less never recommended to run 2 DEs on the same install.
However, it isn’t impossible. It depends what your tolerance for minor issues is.
The reason I stopped running multiple DEs is that every time there was an issue, I would constantly wonder if it was a bug or some strangeness being caused by running multiple DEs.
Thanks for the advice! I really love my XFCE install!
If your running into black screen issue after login try to set your monitors refresh rate to 60mhz and retry. Has worked for some nvidia users.
After the update to version 0.22.0 there was a filesystem error. I filed a bug and it got fixed. Not sure if it is available in any release yet though. The big report I filed should contain a link and instructions on how to build. This only affected Nvidia gpus. If that’s not the problem then the only capture method that works on Wayland is kms unless you use a wlroots based compositor. I spoke with one of the devs and they say they plan on doing a generic pipewire capture method eventually. For now though. You have to do the setcap command to give the sunshine executable the permission it needs to do kms capture. You canget that info from their documentation.
Upgrade went without errors, but I ended up in a blank desktop. Latte Dock seems to be broken. Trying to figure out how I get to a panel, Latte or default Plasma, actually I’d prefer default Plasma now I guess. Thankfully krunner is avilable…
I am not on wayland. x11 works better for me.

I’m going to wait a couple of days before I update. I expect a lot of bugs will be discovered and fixed now that it’s out. 
I suggest to keep an eye on this place in addition too

I tried the setcap command, but it still wouldn’t connect. I was able to get it to work once by running sudo sunshine but it didn’t work if setting Sunshine to autostart through the DE. That worked fine before with X11.
I think part of the issue is using autostart like this. I uninstalled Sunshine through ssh since I couldn’t access the DE, rebooted and then reinstalled. I believe I am one version behind the most current nightly build. I tried running Sunshine from the ssh session and got the errors I was seeing before. I then ran setcap again and Sunshine started as it should. I’m going to set up Sunshine as a service like the docs show and see if it runs correctly at boot time that way.
Lastly, I am not too familiar with the KMS capturing method. I was just using nvfbc on X11 and it was super fast. Is KMS going to be okay for gaming until something better comes along? My latency is about 15ms right now, but that is through a VPN and 20 miles from my server. Would it be worth trying a wlroots compositor? I have no idea what kind of work that would entail.
Finding Plasma 6 to be a bit weird with some of the settings and changes. I guess maybe for people new to KDE it will make things easier but for people that have been using it for a while it can be a bit confusing. Already had to be shown where spacers are for the panel and spectacle has changed it’s default save location on me and the settings threw me off a bit with how they’ve changed things around. But I guess I will either get used to it, maybe…
Running as a service has the same effect, where Sunshine won’t find any encoders. I can stop the service and immediately start it again and Sunshine will connect without issue. It’s odd.
I’ve never used a wlroots compositor so can’t answer to that. KMS has worked fine so far. My only issue with it is getting it to work headless.
I thought latte-dock was unmaintained?
Do you have a splash screen? I got rid of mine and it solved the issue.
Wayland is a bug? 
Never thought of it that way, but yeah… it makes sense
The Latte Dock never worked well for me on Wayland and has not been maintained for some time. I replaced it with a regular panel that doges windows. This has all the necessary functionality for my use case.
Yes and no, the original maintainer stopped but the kde team kept it afloat. I used only little of what Latte offered so I think I’ll be ok reverting to native Plasma panels now.
That’s what I plan todo as well.
Somehow my settings were messed up after the upgrade, wasn’t able to add native Plasma panels until I started over with a fresh profile…and now I have quite a bit of configuration work to do to get back to a usable environment. But hey, once every major release is acceptable…
