User Reviews

  • Fast and seems to follow the Unix philosophy pretty well. Maybe just missing a settings manager.
  • Pure and efficient. And I so far don't miss anything but bloat. Thank you very much!
  • I used all the major desktop environments and adopted lxde as my definitive desktop environment, it's very fast, simple and efficient yet easy to set up.
  • I switched to LXDE from Xfce. I like how LXDE is fast and light, easy to configure, and I like having all the features of Openbox also available.
  • Fast and that's what I appreciate most.
