Menulibre regressions
So, that being said, if you have issues, bugs, suggestions and apparent gripes, I would strongly recommend you file reports either with your specific distribution who is responsible for packaging menulibre (i.e. not Xfce) or [open up an issue with Menulibre directly instead of bitching about it here.

I am currently using the "Plasma" menu layout option in ArcMenu which shows apps you've pinned and allows you to view apps organized by catergory. I'm unsure what the best way to organize each of the menu categories is, however. I have used MenuLibre in the past, but I get weird behavior on Pop!_OS. Here is an example - what is shown in the "Systems Tools" category does not match what I have set via MenuLibre:
