      Looking back to this years later since we were discussing this today. XFCE has come a long way, look at it on Korora these days:

            Still prefer mate over xfce. But xfce is my home desktop and it is good.

            Basically nowdays my daughter simply opens chrome. I always poke a lot with shell so any de is ok!

            I worked on a gnome3 de. It was good but there was too much of win key to go around apps...

              @matteo-nunziati anytime that I don't use something heavy, like KDE, Cinnamon or Bungie, I default to XFCE.

                I thought you used LXCE. At least that's what the lab was the last time I used it.

                  I did a little bit, mostly for other people, not for me 🙂

                        Solydx is another Xfce distro too.
