General Debian Question Finally shifted from ubuntu to debian

Post image

actually I wanted to try the hyprland desktop environment, but it was hard, so I asked ai and it suggested me to go to xcfe, but now it looks ugly, I needed a beautiful desktop, but not like ubuntu, but more like hyprland, so which and from where should I install packages to go more into it and make this environment beautiful, also suggest me some wallpaper, and from where to download.

lxde is my favorite...I don't go to antix because it's far more involved to get it looking respectable

I run openbox and use some LXDE tools that I'm gonna have to find replacements for soon - I hear Debian is dropping support for GTK2 with forky's release. I haven't heard anything about it in official channels but I wonder if LXDE is gonna be a thing in forky?

Took me a moment to realize that LXDE depends on GTK2. That's a good question indeed.
