Congrats to the @npub1gdsd...fse5 folks for all their fantastic work on #xfce420 and special thanks to all the work they have put in to libxfce4windowing (including responding to questions from us Budgie folks 😃). Lots of great work clearly went into the 4.20 release, the XFCE community should be really proud of all the contributions that made it possible. If you're an XFCE user and appreciate their work, be sure to spread some cheer during this holiday season (if you can) with a donation to their OpenCollectives! Details and other ways to get involved:

Liam (of @Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮) has been doing a lot of fantastic work creating / maintaining lists for gaming, Linux, and open source (yours truly is also on there). I would suggest using those to follow a bunch of people and filter down after that. Also be sure to ask Liam to add you on the list if you do Linux / OpenSource things! Open Source one:
