I’ve done 3 dist-upgrades… Just read the release notes and if not, at least the warnings that show up during the apt upgrade process… Dont just hit “yes” or “quit” on all the text
I upgraded my distro relatively easily, had to purge and reinstall my nvidia packages & driver but other than that we’re back in action almost as if nothing changed.
KDE got a bit fancier with Plasma 6, a lot of themes no longer work.
So should I do a full reinstall or a dist-upgrade?

dist-upgrade is a lot faster and easier, and is usually well tested

I read the upgrade notes and nothing seems changed for my setup (intel igpu and xfce4) so i’ll wait for a few weeks and probably do an upgrade then
You will get XFCE 4.20 at least. You can run Wayland now if you use Labwc as a compositor.
Even as a Wayland fan though, I would stay on Xorg for now if you are using XFCE.
