FernAw man, no love for my guy Xfce lol
I tend to gravitate towards it because KDE is still overwhelming to me. I tried Cinnamon but my Xfce desktop was very similar but used less resources and was already familiar, so why bother IMO if I'm not getting anything from the switch.
I setup skippy-xd/libinput gestures for when I'm using my laptop undocked, then just use it like a regular desktop when docked.
Its wonderful, fast, and super configurable. I did add a system sound to play when switching workspaces to help my brain lol that is the only animation I'd like back from my GNOME days. I just can't back the direction of GNOME these days tbh.
Debian Xfce ftw!
