Technically, no... However, I've tested Lubuntu 23.10 a whole bunch of times. It's looking pretty good from my view - but I (pretty much) exclusively test just the live instance. I do this twice a day, every day there's a new .iso for testing.
There's an interesting Picom bug that people are seeing when it is installed normally or in a persistent USB installation. That doesn't manifest in the live version, so I have no experience testing it - other than kinda testing for it by just hanging around and waiting to see if errors appeared.
I have no idea if Xubuntu uses Picom. I am interested in the 'minimum install' concept, though I'd likely never bother with it. I'll just go ahead and install all the things. All of 'em... That's what disk space is for, I suppose.
