Fast as fuck.
Used cinnamon and had frametime issues in all applications. Like a heartbeat of lag.
Made the switch and everything was fixed.

XFCE still can't into GTK3. That's why you'd better use Gnome these days.

It's been my go-to for years but I can understand why people want the modern polish that it lacks. Also customizing the whisker menu always glitches out for me so it's the first thing I remove from the panel. If it's for someone else I'll replace it with a launcher for the Application Finder.

Without turning this into another desktop thread, any of you fags know a decent icon set for Xfce?

No flat, material, circle autism.
Ideally professional looking like Faenza or isometric like QNX/beOS.

>>60293147
go to the main settings window and go to "window manager" the window decorations options should be the first thing you see

imo they are pretty nice but cautious.

>>60291865
Even if your DE only contains xmonad, you still using a DE. Face it.

>>60291704
used it for a while
Liked it pretty much.

But for my Taste KDE is Simpler and looks a bit better. But it still run a minimal XFCE with I3 on my Laptop.

>>60291747 >>60291808
By the time Wayland is going to be mainstream Xfce will get there, they have a few decades to work on that Gtk3 port though, with the pace the whole Wayland train is moving.

>>60291704
I'm an i3fag, but if I was using a DE I definitely be using XFCE.

I used xfce before switching to DWM. It's the bext DE, no contest. Fuck all the others.

Nice pape man. Mind posting it?

>>60293539
What theme is that?

xfce is lacking heavily in system settings

setting up wifi on xfce, for example, is done entirely through background processes and a taskbar applet.

it's a case of either "things just work" or you're so fucked that you're going to have to spend hours learning about console commands and editing config files if you want your wifi adapter to work under xfce.

Something i made by myself. Loosely based on Numix.

>he doesn't know what a DE is

>>60296618

also to any faggot who spends hours "learning console commands", get a mans distro like arch

pacman -S wifi-menu

sudo wifi-menu

there you go, termianl gui wifi setup

almost every distro has this shit

>>60297138

>>60296636
>DE shouldn't be GUI based

Do you understand the concept behind a DE?

Used to use LXDE on old re-purposed machines; KFCE is still very light but a bit more user friendly and with a lot of the nicer programs already installed.
Dropped unity simply because the animations seemed noticeably slow and what pissed me off was how much work it took to re-map the super key (still couldn't get it to work).

Still one problem with XFCE is the default compositor produces screen tearing; a bug which apparently has never been addressed.
