Hi lemmy So i was curious why Enlightenment didn’t recieve much adoption in the Linux Desktop. (especially for a fully featured lightweight wayland DE)
Ik Bodhi Linux uses Enlightenment, but it’s more of Moksha rather then using Enlightenment

Cause

  • Lighter then LXQT
  • Somewhat customizable

But I can see people not liking it cause.

  • the ui(especially for windows users)
  • Hard to find themes due to it using its own toolkit
  • pedz@lemmy.ca

    I was using E16 years ago and liked it but eventually switched to Gnome (2, I think), after waiting for E17 for too long.

    What made me quit was the wait. All the other DEs at the time were releasing new versions frequently but Enlightenment took forever.
