From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Omg omg omg!! I want my Wayland xfce 🙏 come on...
I am so curious to know the improvements in the new version and see Wayland at work in xfce
nice
Nice.
Other than memory size, why do people prefer xfce these days? I use it in https://nowsci.com/webbian/ to keep image size down, but use Gnome on my machines.
It is absolutely rock solid, you can adapt it to your workflow, whichever it is, change the window manager, have all the panels you want and go back to the default configuration immediately. It is an amazing desktop environment, extremely and easily customizable, because it is modular, and, in the end, it simply works. The default look is misleading.
Gnome is very different than xfce and has a different workflow. I find the workflow of xfce very nice and like the modularity of it
I like the aesthetic and theming support
Xfce allowed me to replace the default window manager by Bspwm. Also the panels are fully configurable. This is a totally different philosophy.
Yes! I need something positive to end this year on, and I'd be overjoyed if that was the new XFCE release!
