From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

P.S—
My main problem is screen tearing (my display refresh seems to be 59.999, and I notice this when moving windows around or watching 60 FPS video or even just scrolling PDFs)—is that something Wayland would even help at all? Am I just wasting my time here?
option "TearFree" "true"in xorg.conf.d.yes waylabd could help in that, but i'm not sure how good xfce and mate behave in wayland, btw you are using nixOS, rollback is easy no?, try and tell us :v
XFCE doesn't support Wayland yet, however a lot of the components will run under it. They've got a tracker on their site.
