Dear Neil,


I have not used either KDE or Xfce for any significant amount of time
so there are others here who can give a far better argument for
switching to KDE than I can! That said, given how impressed I was with
Xfce when I used it recently I would say KDE is not really worth the
hassle unless you are installing a fresh system anyway.

I have been using distros with Xfce for a long time now. Xubuntu, Linux Lite and now MX. I like it and get on well with it. I think I will stay with it and not bother with plasma.

Anyway, thanks for all the help and info from all who replied. If it ain't broke .....


I think that's the right choice, unless you are heavily invested in the "K*" range of applications then the sleekness of Plasma is kind of lost, I use it as I heavily use kstars for astronomy. But I notice that the task bar menus seem to change fonts and colour should I happen to be in focus with and using a non-KDE application, such as Chrome or Thunderbird. It does feel pretty sleek otherwise.
