    I wouldn’t say they “hate” it though. XFCE-components used to be common additions to really lightweight desktops (IDK if they still are, haven’t looked into it in a while), because they can actually be used on their own (unlike most KDE stuff) while still being somewhat lightweight compared to Gnome stuff.

      Yeah, it’s hyperbola. 🙂

      I think most lightweight desktops have invested in their own components or use LXDE. Xfce has some dependencies on Gnome tech, which I believe they pull in.
