Fellas,
I’ve been using my current setup on NixOS (Xfce + i3) for about a month now—it’s totally great, but I’ve got some minor things that bother me just a little bit, and I want to see if Wayland does anything for me. I like my combination of a lightweight desktop and tiling windows, so I thought maybe I could do something like MATE + Sway?
Does anyone run anything like this? MATE seems pretty close to Xfce, right?
Happy to hear any thoughts.
Cheers!
I personally find Mate being buggy. Panel items move around after logins. XFce is much more stable. The only advantage mate has is that it’s using about 100 MB less ram, and that it has a user management front end, that xfce lacks. Other than that, I found xfce superior.
