How to make Xfce Desktop available at startup

For GDM you can try adding this entry to /etc/gdm/custom.conf with this line:

WaylandEnable=false

Restart the GDM service

sudo systemctl restart gdm.service

This is because XFCE does not support Wayland full yet.

Because it xfce session exists in /usr/share/xsessions/xfce.desktop
