MODERATORS
 

Hello everyone,

I guess we all have to start somewhere. Here goes...

Welcome to c/xfce

For the first general post to the community, I'd like to welcome all of you to this little corner of the Fediverse. Thanks for showing up.

I'm currently a moderator over at r/xfce on Reddit and started this instance as way for myself to get familiar with the Fediverse and look for possible alternate communities for users of Xfce.

Consider this post a sandbox for people to introduce themselves, test out the functionality, offer tips & suggestions for navigating the Fediverse conventions. I might even be willing to answer some questions; but, I would prefer to just carry on with folks simply discussing Xfce in a new place and ignore me.

By all means post some screenshots of your Xfce desktops in this thread and feel free to use this thread as a way to get more familiar with the platform and get to know one another.

I have no master plans for this instance. There are no plans, from me, to shut down r/xfce. This is a new place, same topic. If you like it here, great. It's up to you to help build and maintain it. If you don't like it, that's fine too. Go to the community/forum you enjoy most and please don't bitch about it here.

I'm new here too, so I am open to suggestions on how to make this a useful place to visit.

For now, the only rules I have for this space are:

  • Keep it Xfce related
  • Be polite & respectful of one another

I've also created a similar space over at https://fedia.io/m/xfce if you are curious about how that platform works

You're most welcome! Thanks for letting me know I'm not shouting into the void.
