A good day to you all.
Recently I've installed Sparky 7.4 XFCE. I am happy with it and plan to keep using it. For some twenty years I have been using linux in dual or multi boots. The first time (some 20 years ago) Ubuntu and Windows, but I soon discovered that one can do very well without Windows. I have used several distro's: Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Manjaro and Sparky. At the moment there is a dual boot of Sparky and Mint.
In recent years my setup always included i3 window manager inside XFCE and Conky. It's a really comfortable way to go about the desktop. I recommend it.
kind regards
