I didn't know about this DE till about a few days ago. Seems really smooth and not so complicated as KDE. I really liked it... well, at least on YT videos, lol :D.

Anyhow, if anyone is using it, some tips would be appreciated. Like, does it have it's own file manager, or I can just keep using whatever I am using currently (Thunar, I'm on xfce and I like it, but I haven't found anything that has caught my eye so far, and I took a look at Solus and Budgie and I was like "wow, I really like this :)"). Any things I should watch out for while installing it? What exactly would be the minimal set of packages I would need to get it running.

If you think of anything else that might be sketchy and/or tricky with it, like something specific when configuring Void to load the DE or something like that, do let me know :).
