XFCE Wild Customizations!

[@enigmaster84]

Xfce, always too underrated. It's freaking awesome!

[@folksurvival]

MATE is the most underrated of the big DEs.

[@andreas6758]

Xfce: A must for all Celeron and Pentium processors !

[@Evgen13Great]

It's awesome if you don't need to use scaling on it. 1080p display is great to use xfce with, but I have a 4k 27" display where everything is just too small without scaling :(

[@RobinJusteEmery]

Great video! Lots of users hate XFCE for its look, but as I keep telling them, it’s just a vanilla look that you have customisation control over.

[@JM-tj5qm]

xfce is a great de. imo the best desktop for people who don't care about fancy features. Is just so solid

[@alexisfinaris2051]

I don't like XFCE because it's hard to resize thin window borders with a mouse You could say I don't like XFWM

[@GeckLab]

@@alexisfinaris2051 That depends a lot on the XFWM theme you use. Personally I'm used to toggle resize mode with a keyboard combination (then I can move the mouse to resize) as I consider it way more comfortable. Also, you can use XFCE with any other WM. In the past I used it with IceWM and worked fine. 👌

I was one of those, but after I tried it, it becomes my favorite DE

[@rtheben]

Thanks Nicco! How good of you

[@unaddan]

first one is the most beautiful for me. I always see the look in WM

[@Ironpants57]

Oh where it started it all. After seeing Christopher's grey/black theme a year or so ago, I have loved to mimic the minimalist feel of their themes and colors. Though I'm more of a 303030/b4b4b4 hex type of person than a 070707/a5a5a5.

[@ömerertuğrul-d6i]

These xfce customizations are wilder than kde ones I didn't know xfce was this customizable

[@sachinbhat7057]

Great video! Would definitely like to see something similar with the cinnamon desktop as well!

[@theperfectionist1607]

Been using KDE. Will definitely try XFCE

[@himbo754]

Very cool desktops with Xfce.

[@jeffrodrequez]

I would love to be able to actually look at any of these user's dot files! Like the first one (love that window look!) - I was able to find the link to the unixp0rn page but of course it's private so I can't get to the page to find the link. Grrrr

[@r3lativ]

How did you find it? He mentioned there's a github page, but didn't leave any link or way of searching for it :/

@0:03 Is that Morrissey with muscles and is the first guy Don Frye out of shape? lol

[@danilomonteiro4565]

I believe xfce4-panel can be further customized editing the gtk.css file (including rounded corners, etc). Edit: nevermind, you mention it yourself at 09:07 :)

[@eikixia]

it can. It's just a pretty mess to figure out (or I'm just bad at it).

[@pikachuchujelly7628]

It is a goddamn mess. GtkInspector can help, but years ago, the Gnome devs decided that in GTK 3.20, CSS nodes should have no relationship with the underlying widgets, which broke just about every theme and made it more difficult. I am able to theme some (not all) of the panel items, but the actual background of the panel wants to remain a solid color somehow.

[@krixhok]

i am new in linux world. where and how do i the files? how do i install this.

[@TDOLLA]

am I missing something or do you just show themes with no follow up information or links? mention the creator has a github repository but don't link it or even share the name...

[@SifatUllahMain]

I'm a newbie Linux user(just started using linux casually around 3/4 months ago) and I really really love Xfce! Sadly I don't know yet how to add those beautiful blurs and icons and stuff.

[@ultrat00n]

Will there be new videos soon? I wonder if there's something new about design

[@niccoloveslinux]

Yes, I hope to be back next week

[@pikachuchujelly7628]

I always settle on the Greybird derived themes. Menta is currently my favorite. My all time favorite theme was Vertex, but it's no longer maintained and doesn't play nice with the panels due to breakages in GTK.

[@NostalgiaforInfinity]

Do people even use LXDE? It feels like a weird homeless version of KDE and XFCE.

[@fabricio4794]

LXDE is Trash and dead

[@ChristopherJamesNeff]

LXQT is a lot smaller than XFCE though which is its main advantage for people who want or need that. Some people want a DE as small and as light as possible.

[@code8986]

Hi Niccolo, is there any chance of getting key chords -- multi-step hot key sequences (Ctrl-K,Ctrl-B) -- in Plasma 6?

[@niccoloveslinux]

Mmmh we already have that I think

[@code8986]

@@niccoloveslinux I would love for you to be right, but I've never seen that ability in the 3 years I've been using KDE. If you can point me in the right direction, I'd certainly appreciate it.

[@Videobe]

@@code8986 You can do key chords with sxhkd if that helps?

[@code8986]

@@Videobe Won't that conflict with KDE's built-in hotkey functionality? I thought sxhkd was only meant to be used with window managers.

[@Videobe]

​@@code8986 It shouldn't as long as you don't have the same keys configured in both. It should operate independently of whatever desktop environment you are using. I currently use xbindkeys in parallel with the XFCE built in shortcuts without issue. I've been intending to try out sxhkd once I can find the time for it. But I've just discovered that there is now also swhkd as an alternative to sxhkd which also works on Wayland, so that might be the more future proof option. It uses the same config file as sxhkd, so should be easy to switch between them in any case.

[@Priimerra]

Hey, I have question. I have tested Plasma on mx an fedora and on both wayland uses on avarage 7W more than X11 sesion. Gnome is similar it uses more on wayland but it is less consistant than Plasma. Sometimes it uses 5W more and Slsometimes 10W more. Is it normal? I have Zen3 AMD laptop.

[@bertvantol9669]

I have installed MiniOS with XFCE desktop to bring an old PC back to life and it works GREAT !! While I like the look of MacOS, I put the Taskbar on TOP and installed Plank Dock on Bottom. Now two dreams left: 1. How to make the TOP Taskbar transparent 2. How to place Clock/Calendar in the middle of the TOP Tasbar ?? So these are my wishes to fullfill my dream completely. Hope somebody can help me out.

Note for the editor: I suggest avoiding switching camera to the face camera so often, either keep the face of the narrator in a small viewport in a corner, or don't show the face at all when they talk about something that you can show illustration for. Also when they mention a name (of a project, etc.) you should write it on screen, not just (try to) pronounce it orally.
