Former GNOME user coming aboard.

Hi all, thought I'd throw a "me too" thread in here.  Seems a lot of people are of the same mind lately.  I don't even want to give Gnome 3 a shot.  So here I am.

I run debian and have done so for countless years now.

I also use i3 at work for simplicity and speed.  Even though my workstations are multi-head, multi-core, multi-gigs of ram behemoths.

So.  Hi.

Hi. Xfce is not just for people who want something light. It's for people who want something that tastes good.

I'm a newcomer as well, but to all forms of Linux. After a little bit of guess-and-check, I'm settled on CrunchBang 10 Xfce.

It's light, but it's loads more fun to toy with than Unity or GNOME 3. I'm looking forward to asking a lot of questions around here, to say the least!

Heh, yep.  XFCE tastes good!

Yupp, me too. Gnome 3 and Unity is out of the question as all I want is a user interface that doesn't get in the way on my way to the terminal emulator and browser,  so xfce seems like the logical choice.

By the way, the only reason I signed up for the forum was so I could submit the lovely captch date -u +%jXfce|sha256sum|sed 's/\W//g'
