kdeconnect commands for MX Linux

As you know, you can remotely send commands to your computer from your android phone using kdeconnect.

I tailored the commands I was using on my Kubuntu for my new MX Linux:

Hibernate: xfce4-session-logout --hibernate
Reboot: xfce4-session-logout --reboot --fast
Shutdown: xfce4-session-logout --halt --fast
Suspend: xfce4-session-logout --suspend
Takes a screenshot and sends to your phone: file=/tmp/$(hostname)_$(date "+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S").png; xfce4-screenshooter -f -s "${file}" && kdeconnect-cli -d $(kdeconnect-cli -a --id-only) --share ${file}

Nice, how well does it work in Xfce? Since I started to work on MX-KDE version I found this kdeconnect invaluable.

Right? I like getting notifications and call alerts without having to check my phone.
The commands work as expected but I don't have the kde phone icon in my system tray. It works but it's just not there.

One question, I switched to MX Linux distro because on my system Kubuntu was a bit laggy. Is there any big difference on MX-KDE performance-wise?
