xfce4 is one of my favorite desktop environments. It is small and stable, but it has a big flaw, that is, it does not have a graphical global proxy tool, so it cannot set global proxies such as socks5 and https. In addition, it does not have a network hotspot function. Based on these two points, I dare not use xfce as my long-term desktop environment, so I just using cinnamon, but xfce is my favorite. I hope to improve xfce's graphical network configuration tool so that xfce will be more perfect.

I believe NetworkManager will tack care of both of those things although I'm not sure about proxies. I think Gnome, Cinnamon etc just make use of NetworkManagers functionality to create connections.

Hello, and welcome to this forum!
On all my Linux Mint systems I find that the "nm-connection-editor", a Gtk-GUI-app, does everything I need to tweak re. network connections. But I must admit that I have no idea if it would work for your needs ... However, there's a good discussion @ https://www.computernetworkingnotes.com … linux.html how to use it. Worth a try?
Cheers, m4a
