systemctl start vncserver@:1 results in:

That's it, no further diagnostics, and nothing is listening on port 5901.
... and that was because even xfce is not going to work. The reason was
dumped into ~/.vnc/*log:
/usr/bin/startxfce4: X server already running on display :1
MESA: error: ZINK: failed to choose pdev
glx: failed to create drisw screen
failed to load driver: zink
xfce4-session-Message: 11:40:42.960: SSH authentication agent is already
running
xinit: connection to X server lost
So this is not a Gnome limitation, but a systemd limitation.
It's an X limitation or an operating system limitation if you really
want to call it that. There can only be one X server on a port. Change
the display number.
I run a VNC server with openbox using systemd and it works fine.
