If XFCE was on wayland

Awesome! I've been wanting XFCE on wayland. Although I love using Niri, there may be some cases where I want to use a DE, and I would prefer a lightweight one. XFCE being stuck on x11 kinda kept me away from it. In some ways it doesn't matter, but it would be nice to go wayland.

KDE and Cinnamon are both great, but I will always prefer something lightweight and snappy.

How do you get that custom fastfetch output?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Fastfetch is configurable via a config file

Fastfetch Wiki

Here are some ideas

Fastfetch themes

You can do all kinds of stuff with the config file. See here.

Missing only window snapping, if anyone know how to do that on Sway please let me know.

Just curious, if you're trying to replicate xfce on wayland, why did you choose sway instead of a stacking compositor?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Because I want stacking/tiling hybrid

But XFCE IS on Wayland though?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Everything except the compositor has been ported! Xfce recommends running xfce over labwc or wayfire for now

Yes, but it still in early experimental stages
