I've tried a couple, but I always end up back to Alt+F2 in XFCE, since most of these launchers always start so slowly in comparison, and I never use any other features (more than once) than starting Firefox/Emacs/Terminal …
- ue_ 10y agoRofi is fast, customisable and nice.
- vortico 10y ago+1, it's the fastest of all that I've tried. It doesn't do too much out of the box, but it takes a couple frames to launch, as opposed to >1s for many of the alternatives.
- gremlinsinc 10y agoI like rofi + i3w on Antergos, after using tiled windows and all the hotkey goodness it'd be hard to switch back to a more window-ed experience.
- andrepd 10y agoI use synapse. It's lightning fast and does the job. I can't do without it! I'm going to test a few of those alternatives as well, thanks!
- nkg 10y agoAnyone remembers that Firefox extension ? I can't remember its name but it also had about the same funcitonalities.
