I certainly prefer XFCE to GNOME 3 but XFCE still
has a few rough
edges and bugs and Thunar is no longer the lightweight app it once
claimed to be. I use rox filer on my Pandaboard as it has a comparable
feature to Thunar but loads almost instantly compared to the 20s or so
I can be waiting for Thunar to get its act together (this is running
off a SSD via USB2). I can load dolphin in the same time it takes to
load Thunar under fluxbox.
wow GNOME3 takes another hit ...
seems like XFCE is getting bigger all the time
isn't it also the default for ubuntu studio ?
Yes, but not for size reasons. It just seems to fit the workflow(s)
better. There are people who love and use unity or gnome3 with
ubuntustudio too.
