The XFCE website seems to be alive, and distros like Xubuntu still use it. But XFCE hasn't been updated since 2015. Is the project dead?

    Do not mix up the news update on the website with actual changes in the projects. Check xfce.org/projects and you'll see many updates from this November.

    The roadmap github.com/lxqt/lxqt/wiki/Roadmap for LXQT hasn't updated since June '16, at the same time the current LXQT version 0.90 was released. So, LXQT isn't that much fresher than XFCE.

There hasn’t been a full release of Xfce for a while, but the project is still alive. The git repositories are very active, and a number of projects inside Xfce have had releases since Xfce 4.12: Thunar, the file manager, in October 2018, Ristretto, the picture viewer, in August 2018, etc.

  • Basically, the current development push is trying to get everything to work properly with GTK+ 3. I expect there'll be a full release (as opposed to the current piecemeal releases) once that happens.
