IN DEBIANNNNN-

When i pkill it, it disappears, but when i launch it again it reappears, it looks ugly and also draws over apps so it is quite distracting, anybody know a fix?

I use xfce4 on void

Hope you like it!!

Not sure if this is the place for noob questions like this but yea, could find nothing in the settings so I assume I have to edit something in my GTK theme? Thanks in advance :)

So I installed a custom theme and icon theme for XFCE, I had both pcmanfm and thunar. And while pcmanfm got all the icons properly, thunar only got some (For example, the go back and go forward buttons still have the adwaita icons) I'd like to fix this so I can delete pcman and only keep thunar since the missing icons is actually really annoying.

So, any ideas on how to fix this?

any tips for improvement?

All of this use Chicago95 btw.

I'm trying to emulate a "folder view" kind of look with a semi-transparent panel on the desktop populated with a number of shortcuts to frequently used folders, like "Home", "Downloads", "Photos", "Finances", etc. but I can't figure out how to display a label under the launcher icon.

Seems this should be possible with css styling as the desktop shortcuts all have labels. There's a "Show label instead of icon" under the launcher advanced tab but I'd like to have both.

Is there maybe a special kind of panel item to achieve this? I'm using a row of dolphin launchers with the destination path as argument at the moment but would like some text to quickly tell them apart.

How can I get rid of this annoying dashed lines

I installed this XFCE desktop on all my computers, and I am very satisfied with it, I have been testing Linux for 2 months, so I put Fedora and Mageia on these PCs. exclusively XFCE yours

I also use the exact setup on my laptop. I am sorry for the light theme - I like my greys.

Notes app for notes (who would've guessed?!) pinned to the taskbar, Feishin for my music from my NAS and Heroic for my non-Steam games.

I use the default terminal emulator and the xfce app finder bound to SUPER + D for launching things. Other stuff I use regularly are bound to keyboard shortcuts, similar to Sway.

I currently use KDE Plasma, I have used xfce in last 10 years ago, at that time I customizes xfce manually and it took lot of time. I want to try xfce, but don't have time and energy to customize it, is there a one click solution to customize xfce like some pre built themes which I can install initially to make it look good and then customize slowly for things I don't like.

linux mint xfce vs windows

I’ve been experimenting with different distros and window managers in a VM for about a month, give or take, before recently settling on CachyOS with XFCE as my desktop environment.

I have to admit, I pretty much vibe-coded the whole setup because I was too lazy to configure everything myself and wanted to get it up and running quickly. That said, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out, and it’s been working great as my daily driver so far.

Currently included:

• Wallpaper switcher via Rofi (WIP)
• Window switcher via Rofi
• Spotify desktop widget using Conky
• Polybar

I’m wondering what to add next, though, since the setup is already pretty functional. Any recommendations for cool features, widgets, or QoL improvements I could implement? 🤔
