Xfce appreciation post

There is a place for graphically gorgeous distro’s, but when it comes to ease and speed, Xfce is just the best for me.

I started using Xfce when Xubuntu first came out and I switched to Linux Mint Xfce when that started. I did try other distro’s when others recommended them, but always switched back to Xfce.

I have an old Eeepc that runs so smoothly on the latest Mint Xfce despite being a senior in computer years.

And that’s why it was about time I gushed about Xfce on here 😀

I like XFCE. It's the only DE that was just happy to run in my super weird setup without issues.

XFCE is something else. I used as my desktop for years but at some point I changed to Mate.

What always got me fuming was not having the double pane feature in Thunar I could get in Caja.
