Linux
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.

I really hope XFCE gets a port to wayland. I love the GTK2 desktops. I am young enough to remember GTK3 dropping when I was in middle school. I just never really liked gnome 3+ but I still use it for my HTPC (gnome works wonders on a TV)
Definitely consider KDE wayland if/when nvidia cards play nicer with that. Gnome is usable but buggy with nvidia but on my system (RTX 2060) KDE does not fair well.
I think XFCE devs started working on the Wayland port. See https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap.
I am a diehard swaywm user, but the only desktop environment I would consider is an XFCE wayland port.
Xfce is one of my favorite DEs, snappy and light
compatibility with ms.office.
that'd be more of an application issue (libreoffice, onlyoffice, etc) than an xfce issue
Well, compatibility with the MS office suite on Linux is pretty terrible in my experience. But I've used libreoffice for years with zero issues.
Have been using it for about a decade. It hasn't changed all that much, in a good way. Still fast, reliable, and great even on older hardware.
I use LibreOffice and occasionally google docs, would those work for you? Or an online version of ms office maybe? If that exists, I'm honestly not sure.
