giving it some love xfce linux mint

Post by lbrocato »

I like the way Linux mint does xfce specially with right click applications it should be the main one but should get away from Ubuntu and firefox their both going the wrong direction. you need to make brave browser the main browser and should make linux mint debian based or mx linux basedImage

There already is a Linux Mint which is Debian based. It is Linux Mint DEbian otherwise known as LMDE. We have an entire section of the forum Debian Edition Support for it.

The Desktop Environment which comes with it is Cinnamon, but I am pretty sure I have see that some people have switched to using Xfce with it. If you check that part of the forum you may find that information.

That is possible if you have a newer computer. LMDE4 currently uses the 4.19 kernel which is too old for many newer computers.

There will be an LMDE5 based on the 5.10 kernel, but I do not know the timing for its release. You can follow the forum discussion about it here LMDE5.
