What about complete themes like Windows, macOS etc., as a one-click option ( possibly in MX tweak etc., )

Also, what about an integrated file/folder search option in XFCE file manager ( that may increase productivity for MX vs vanilla XFCE )

Yes, but Thunar is done by another team, these guys:

Doesn't Thunar have a custom action that allow you to search files/folders?

Yes, but the custom search option opens up Catfish . It could have been a search bar for more productivity and newbie-friendliness .

In fact many people want / ask for that ... (including me) (... similar to Win. Explorer). I'm sure it was asked many times for years on Xfce forums, too. Just maybe for they're trying to keep it light (if it requires adding too many codes)..

@Huckleberry Finn Thanks. I should've posted on the XFCE forums.

https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.ph ... 7#p640367
Please see this for a suggestion to make antiX advert blocker as good as a pihole ( I have written and tested the code too )
I think that would be a very good improvement to the good old antiX advert blocker and also to MX 21 .

Ok. But I hope @Eadwine Rose doesn't "fish slap" us as these are off-topic: "Fluxbox" :)
