I don't get why it's still so popular.

>>107612603you wouldn't understand (because you're retarded)
>>107612803nuh uh
>>107612603
>>107612603because freetards are running linux on their second hand spunk encrusted thinkpads from 2005
LXQt >>>
>>107612603People want their OS to use minimal resources so maximum resources are free for programs like in the Windows 2000 days.>>107613691Does it have faithful Windows themes and login managers?
>>107613759>faithful Windows themesIf you want something like Windows, just use Windows
>>107613759>use minimal resourcesthat hasn't been the case for xfce in years
>>107613826Perhaps I should give Debian Lxqt a try over Mint XFCE on my laptop.

>>107613807No way fag, Linux would be better if it was a carbon copy of Windows before 2012. Just using Chicago95 makes me feel less homesick, but it is still a simulacra due to Linux jank such as login managers. Perhaps running lxqt and kde plasma themes next can make things less miserable.
It just works: - No stupid feature creep by overzealous devs- New, slightly improved version every 2 years - Has been around since forever, hundreds of themes - stable as fuck
>>107613852>Debian LxqtI really enjoyed using Lubuntu, check it outlubuntu.me>>107613874You're using Linux wrong
>>107612603It doesn't Krash
>>107612603i tried it recently, its ass. only good for portable OS, I use it as my travel OS so i can boot up at work without being spied on through all the windows shit.
>>107613691>tiling window manager in your path
>>107613906It's an option, but they have different uses.TWM needs a lot of setup to replace a desktop environment, and it's not really meant for the average user.You're probably a larper.>just use tty durrr
>>107612603Just because some guy spams something a lot, doesn't mean that it's popular.Xfce was popular over ten years ago. It is dead now.You can't build a DE on gtk, dig your head into the sand and hope that Gnome allows you to exist.
>>107614051>Xfce was popular over ten years ago. It is dead now.What do you suggest people use now instead?
>>107612603Because it just works, every time I tried a different DE it was either bloated shit or kept crashing, always went back to XFCE after a while
>>107614051>it can't just keep working>it's got to have>MUH LATEST EVERYTHING>MUH UPDOOTS>IT'S GOT 2>KEEP ON>MOOVING
>>107613891>I really enjoyed using Lubuntu, check it out>lubuntu.meI'll check it out on my laptop then while I still got Rufus on Windows 7 ready, should I grab the LTS release or latest stable release?
Only reason I switched away from XFCE to KDE is XFCE kept giving me screen tearing in games that aren't particularly graphicly intensive (notably Factorio). Yes I tried compton or pico or whatever its called now. KDE, dare I say it, just works.
>>107614245Latest stable, or if you have older hardware, go with LTS.
>>107614308My 2015 Lenovo 20D9 seems old enough so hopefully I'm not going to miss out on any good improvements by going with LTS
>>107614231So what's wrong with Openbox?
