DistroWatch review - LXQt 2.0.0 running on EndeavourOS

There’s a review of LXQt 2.0.0 running on EndeavourOS in the latest DistroWatch Weekly:

It has plenty to say about LXQt (mostly positive), and very little to say about EndeavourOS, as :enos: does it’s job perfectly (easy to install a DE and set up with minimal customisation).

Yes, I got the impression Jesse liked us (EndeavourOS).

I think the 1980’s want their website back :rofl:

What’s wrong with wanting it simple?

:blush:

Nothing wrong with wanting it simple. My EndeavourOS install is openbox wm. As a matter of fact, all of my Arch based installed distros run openbox wm. And if by chance I install any other type of distro besides Arch based, they run openbox wm as well. :wink:

Labwc is openboxish…is nice

I like to stick with strickly openbox and not a fork of openbox or openboxish. :wink:

Its not a fork lol,w more openbox like xd..

“Specifically, I used EndeavourOS which is an Arch-based distribution that allows the user to pick their desktop environment at install time and sets it up with a minimal amount of customization. This gave me quick access to LXQt without a lot of distro-specific changes and without another desktop installed and cluttering up the system.”

Nice.

The only thing surprising about Jesse’s review is the upcoming LXQT Wayland. I had been led to believe by “experts in the internets” that LXQT was going to be X11 forever like Mate…

Lxqt you can say is a DE without wm or wc. Means end user choice.

Like xfce , lxqt made wayland proof a bit. Is stil not on a level as gnome or kde at the end. Longterm i dont know what goingbin dept if path of wc go further i dont know what wil happend on x11 wm use down te road. Future onlt tells

thanks for getting me up to speed on that. interesting. I am also convinced that outside of KDE and Gnome no other DE’s integrate Wayland well (looking at you, Budgie) at all. Always enjoyed lxqt.

to the future :clinking_glasses: :rocket:
