User1: <AceHW> Anybody have pics comparing a vanilla LXDE to a vanilla LXQT, and the same for Lubuntu themed LXDE and LXQT?
User1: I'd kinda like to see them next to each other to compare.
User1: <VikingRedwolf> lxqt.org
User1: <VikingRedwolf> lxde.org
User1: <AceHW> >general links to websites
User1: Wow
User1: <VikingRedwolf> No themes there
User1: <AceHW> Ok

User1: <VikingRedwolf> Vanilla LXDE looks really awful
User1: <brli7848> that is unfair, I mean, lxqt gets kwin/kde's backup here XD
User1: <VikingRedwolf> Backup?
User1: <AceHW> Support?
User1: <VikingRedwolf> Ah
User1: <VikingRedwolf> Well, it's almost a K environment
User1: <brli7848> Then I wonder why, lxde doesn't update its default theme whereas lubuntu roll out new themes time by time...
User1: <VikingRedwolf> O.o How's that we don't update the theme?
User1: <VikingRedwolf> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Artwork#Released_artwork
User1: <tsimonq2> @VikingRedwolf, He's saying we DO, they DON'T. Why?
User1: <VikingRedwolf> ahh, sorry, I misunderstood it .___.
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @brli7848, SORRY!
User1: <VikingRedwolf> well, they do, actually. LXQt was shipped with a plain vanilla theme at first, when it de-forked from Razor. now it's shipped with Frost and Ambiance / Radiance themes
User1: <VikingRedwolf> but that usually happens. developers are not interested in themes, but in features. look at Gnome f.e.
User1: <brli7848> Haven't used gnome since gnome3 vs unity divergence...so..
User1: <AceHW> Unity was part of gnome3?
User1: <brli7848> No, they diverged when switching from gtk2 to gtk3, and there was a small quassel on the Net IIRC
User1: <brli7848> After noticing that my box can't afford unity, I switched to lubuntu
User1: <VikingRedwolf> Wise choice! :)
User1: <ShiBonCip> ð
User1: <VikingRedwolf> no, I mean it. I always hear people reviving old computers with Lubuntu. but have you ever tried Lubuntu on new computers? it's so fast it's almost telepathic!
User1: <ShiBonCip> that's why the collibri one suitable for lxqt
User1: <ShiBonCip> fast and light
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @ShiBonCip, ð
User1: <Wolfenprey> @VikingRedwolf, I ever use lubuntu on new computers.
User1: <Wolfenprey> but, ey, plasma itÂ´s becoming so good too
User1: <ShiBonCip> @Wolfenprey, kde plasma?
User1: <Wolfenprey> yep
User1: <VikingRedwolf> ye. I like gnome3 though. but all desktop environments are becoming really great lately
User1: <Wolfenprey> i feel gnome3 a bit heavy
User1: <ShiBonCip> noted, im conservative
User1: <VikingRedwolf> I felt that with Kubuntu in my laptop. I guess it depends on lots of variables
User1: <AceHW> Sometimes I feel like nothing is good
User1: <Wolfenprey> kubuntu never worked fine with me, i dont know why
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @AceHW, ð
User1: <Wolfenprey> but on Neon or Mint KDE it flies
User1: <acheronuk> @Wolfenprey, what was wrong?
User1: <ShiBonCip> @Wolfenprey, too much candies
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @Wolfenprey, I broke Kubuntu 6 minutes after installation. Don't ask what I did. ð
User1: <ShiBonCip> even gnome one
User1: <Wolfenprey> @acheronuk, Last time, a lot of crashes on desktop components
User1: <acheronuk> @Wolfenprey, with what version? plasma 5.5 on Xenial was not great
User1: <Wolfenprey> Open Dolphin, "Plasma crash" Â¿???
User1: <Wolfenprey> i think it was with the last LTS, 16.04
User1: <ShiBonCip> even i still use pcmanfm rather than qt one :p
User1: <ShiBonCip> as long as it works
User1: <Wolfenprey> but months ago, i not tried the last iso
User1: <acheronuk> @Wolfenprey, thisng have moved on. latest plasma is light years better. have not crashed plasma on this install for a few weeks
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @ShiBonCip, I have the qt version. it works pretty fine.
User1: <Wolfenprey> last Kubuntu LTS 16.04.03?
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @acheronuk, aye. improving a lot. and aesthetically also.
User1: <ShiBonCip> @VikingRedwolf, no offense
User1: <acheronuk> @Wolfenprey, No, artful with plasma 5.10.5
User1: <acheronuk> but Zesty is good too :)
User1: <ShiBonCip> @VikingRedwolf, fits with your point
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @ShiBonCip, ð
User1: <VikingRedwolf> @ShiBonCip, aye! I'm a bit a design nazi (like those grammar nazi) so I really really appreciate design over functionality. until I realise something works bad and I uninstall it :)
User1: <VikingRedwolf> can't help it
User1: <ShiBonCip> no worries
User1: <ShiBonCip> but i can't wait the next release with new arts â¤
User1: <VikingRedwolf> ððð
User1: <VikingRedwolf> hey! somebody give a promotion to @ShiBonCip!
User1: <ShiBonCip> oh please
User1: <VikingRedwolf> :)
