Truly master race. XFCE4 on my chromebux works better than OSX on my 13" macbook pro.

>>54323218

>>54321750

>>54323218

Is pretty average honestly

>>54323571
Ismt that i3? Xfce requires pretty much nothing

>>54322176
work fine on my t430, do I miss something?

I think he is just too stupid setting up compton.

Installed xubuntu a few hours ago and damn, I'm in love. And it doesnt even look as dated as I thought it'd look.

>>54324778
The default theme is god ugly
>>
Does this count? openbox with xfce4-panel
>>
>>54324778
What's so great about whisker menu? Stock win 7 start menu is better imo. Should I look through the options again? What are the great features I'm not using?
>>
>>54325018
Xfce panel has always been my favorite part of Xfce. All the other shit that is basically the same as any other DE/non-tiling wm, including Windows, but the panel has all the customization options that I actually want. The alternatives are all either shit rip offs of OS X or shit rip offs of Windows Vista and earlier
>>
>>54321617
Op's is Arc Dark
>>
>>54323218
Not being a slow piece of garbage.
>>
>>54325142
Definitely same for me. It's what sets xfce apart from other DEs more than anything else. I was going to make the switch to vanilla openbox, because I'm on a shitty old laptop, but I just couldn't leave the panel behind.
>>
>>54325195
What motivates you to use xfce panel/openbox instead of full xfce? Is it worth my time to try it out?
>>
>>54325248
It's a performance thing. I'm not even convinced it makes a difference, but I'm sort of obsessed with getting as much performance out of my computer as possible. If you have even a slightly new computer/laptop, It's probably not worth it for you to try it. I have a 6-year old compaq laptop, and I'm doing everything in my power to keep it functional
>>
>>54323218
Vertical panel and a taskbar plugin
>>
>>54325248
Honestly it's mostly identical. Xfwm nowadays has mostly the same features as Openbox, except being able to undecorate windows separately (you can make it undecorate maximized windows in the configs however)
