- I am in love with XFCE. Amazing desktop environment.

Workspace overview
Something like this ? I use skippy-xd which I bind to Super + Space and it gives me a live overview of all open windows regardless of what tab they're on.

Looking for tool to give overview of all workspaces
I use skippy-xd which shows all of my active windows as a popup and just keybind it to Super + Space.

Okay. I will not say, that it's the last update, this time. But this will stay for long time. I just saw some Pop_Os photo, on the internet and remembered, how much I like the layout and colors, so I replicated it, as close as I could. It's simple, nice and functional.
Btw. I am not trying to write my configuration by myself. I am trying to modify a config file, that I took from this site: https://github.com/richardgv/skippy-xd/blob/master/skippy-xd.sample.rc

Panel - preview of opened programs
I used this https://github.com/richardgv/skippy-xd a couple of times. It works ok.
- Skippy-XD is buggy on Arch - clicking outside of any window should exit but instead it opens the window closest to to the mouse
-
Mission control style task switcher
There are two programs, each with its own issues. 1) skippy-xd 2) xfdashboard
What are some alternatives?
