    What are the icons for?

    I know gnome, and the 3 that have their name in the logo (xfce, sway, tty).

    I’m going back to Slackware. Can’t keep up with this shit any more.

      LXQt: continuation of LXDE with Qt

      Hyprland: tiling/floating wayland-only window manager

      Sway: same but slower and not controversial

      Wayfire: floating/stacking window manager, used in RasperryPiOS

      Alacritty: a terminal, in Rust, that lacks all the stuff that Desktop Terminals have, but it is aaaaaacccellerated

        I had to leave Slackware when I got kids. Kubuntu took less time (for me) to get the usual stuff working on.

        Kids got older, and Kubuntu was getting annoying, but I didn’t make it back to Slackware because now… I use Arch, btw.
