Lumina, The Lightweight, Easy To Use, And Unknown Desktop Environment
thekernalblog.github.io
There are many desktop environments now. With Xfce, LXDE, Cinnamon, Mate, Gnome, and Budgie, there are just so many options. However, there is a new major player in the desktop environment world. Lumina. It is a fast, minimal, and very customizable desktop environment. While it is not in many of the official repos, I still think that it is a great choice of desktop for any user.

      So sorry I forgot, I will add it to the blog post.

      Edit: I added it at the bottom of the post.

        Nice! Sorry! I didn’t mean to be rude! That’s just one of my pet peeves. :)

        I do appreciate the actual date being on the post though! Far too many blogs neglect the date entirely, and far too many use an annoying relative date (“written 3 days ago” or whatever).

          I could that you weren’t trying to be rude. The date is automatic when using Jekyl for blogs.

    While KDE comes with a lot of applications, there is almost nothing that comes with Lumina.

    KDE doesn’t come with a lot of applications, most of the stuff is optional. You also didn’t specify what you see as “applications” – are parts of the desktop “applications”? Which applications come with Lumina?

    I’m tired of giving feedback to your posts and I think I’ll stop now. It becomes clear to me that you’re unable to provide blog posts which contain more than a few sentences of your personal opinions.

    What I remember from the last time I looked into this, when wanting a graphical login screen I still had dbus/*kit as a dependancy (and other apps probably require them too). This defeated the point of using Lumina in order to not have those deps, which is/was a main selling point. So I do not know whether this is a feasible alternative (for Linux users) to e.g. LxQt.

    *on Linux, mind you, not the BSD family of distros that Lumina is primarily written for.
