Indeed. I use Xfce and have to switch to Cinnamon to get a very good multi-monitor support.

Why? I am running XFCE and didn't have any problem using an external monitor.

Xfce have a hard time recognize recently plugged in monitors. I have to restart the PC with the monitors plugged in to have a 50/50 chance to make it work. Or just switch to Cinnamon and make it wok right away.

Have you tried any other distro with XFCE? I am running Gentoo and Void and both are fine.

Nope. Since Cinnamon fixes the issue, I have no plans to test with other distros 😊 But I might some day.
