| bgstack15 | Devuan meet tomorrow, September 1, at 20:30 UTC. Pad is here: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/2/code/edit/EyqXIoehXOEki80cBYh6ah7h/ | 16:20 |

| brocashelm | does devuan intend on using xfce as the default for live isos down the road? what are your thoughts on lxqt? | 22:36 |
| fsmithred | brocashelm, I've thought about switching to lxde. I'm less enthusiastic about a switch to qt just because it's such a big switch. | 22:40 |
| fsmithred | But I also realize that gtk might become too difficult to deal with. | 22:40 |
| brocashelm | cool, thanks. problem with lxde is it's not maintained anymore, right? their devs teamed up with razor-qt to develop lxqt, and it's currently the lightest of the "main" DEs | 22:45 |
| brocashelm | i can see how the gtk-to-qt transition might take some time to get adjusted to | 22:47 |
| fsmithred | I'm pretty sure lxde is still maintained. | 22:48 |
| brocashelm | just a matured product, though? | 22:48 |
| fsmithred | uh, yeah, I guess. I just looked at their sourceforge site. Some new stuff in 2021, some core stuff hasn't changed in a few years. | 22:52 |
| brocashelm | ah | 22:54 |
| brocashelm | at least they both use pcmanfm and openbox by default | 22:54 |
| brocashelm | so switching between them is less complex | 22:54 |
| fsmithred | but a lot of apps would change | 22:57 |
| fsmithred | I made a "kde-light" for a friend that was nice. MiyoQT (lxqt) plus her favorite kde apps. | 22:58 |
| fsmithred | for a low-end laptop. Works well. | 22:58 |
| brocashelm | trinity is also pretty interesting. i know exe uses that | 23:01 |
| fsmithred | Yeah, I've played with that a little. | 23:11 |
