I see there's a way to install TDE in Fedora 35
So what I will prob do is a Fedora XFCE spin install
Why bother? Just do a minimal no frills basic installation with Xorg & IceWM.
And then do...
Install the minimalistic Trinity Desktop Environment:
dnf install trinity-tdebase
And then all of the programs that I use on a daily basis, install as flatpaks to where I can use some newer, up to date apps.
Not me. I've not tried to install anyone's flatpak yet, no need.
And of course make THUNAR my file manager... Konq is just bleh....
Does all of this sound ok? Or is there anything that you would tweak?
OFMs MC & FCL are the only file managers I use. MC doesn't even need X running, yet has its own menu entry in Konsole, which I very much would not like to have to do without.
