Poll: Should the Whisker Menu Be Changed? (Aesthetics)

Should the Whisker Menu Be Changed to look more appealing?

  • Yes, I think it should be changed.
  • No, I prefer it as it is.
  • I have no strong opinion either way.
  • I have suggestions for improvements or know a Xfce theme. (Please comment below.)
  • A different Desktop Environment should replace Xfce (Please comment below.)

I think KDE should replace XFCE.
However I would like to know the comparison of known CVE’s history for each desktop environment.

Due to plans to port to Wayland - Development - Whonix Forum, resource constraints for running inside virtual machines, preferences of security and minimalism, choices are limited. At this time, LXQt seems the most likely next thing.

GNOME is highly unlikely. See:

I like minimalism and less code = less possibilities for vulnerabilities. So, I did - apt remove xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin - and I use xfce panel’s built-in applications menu or app-launcher. It is absolutely enough for me. :sunglasses: Thus I don’t need Whisker Menu at all.
