general consoomer here
why isnt XFCE recommended more to normie windows users coming in from the windows 10 end of life?
gnome is too different as well as kde
>>
it’s nothing really, other than the fact that it’s a bit more underground compared to kde
>>
>>106977434
but its the closest thing to windows DE?
i dont understand why people still recommend base ubuntu when xfce mint is better
>>
>>106977451
the average first-time linux user they are probably thinking less about functionality and more in terms of look and feel. Gnome looks modern and they’ve come to expect the bloat. It feels familiar to them whereas Xfce looks too utilitarian or old-school.

how the fuck is XFCE anything like windows nigga? unless you tinker with it or have a distro that already does that shit, vanilla xfce doesn't look or act like windows at all, KDE however, looks just like windows 10 and actually uses wayland instead of still relying on piece of shit x11

>>106977665
Hm... I got this look as well in Mageia, so I usually recommend LXQt instead of it.

Xfce is maintained by 3 people. And it's nothing like Windows by default. Only Mint and Manjaro make it look somewhat like a cheap Windows 2000/XP knockoff. It looks like an ancient cheap macOS clone on other distros >>106977665
KDE and GNOME are the only real DEs.

look at this fucking rat

>>106977930
Nta but I am way more sensitive to screen tearing than latency. Using a compositor on X11 is seen as cringe or whatever, so I just migrated to Wayland instead.
>>
>>106977366
cos normie retards use shitcord and shitcord only works on kde just look at the desktop thread

>calls other ppl jews
