CLUSTER MENU-CUSTOMIZE-DESKTOP · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-07-10

Desktop application menu editors

This cluster consists of desktop utilities that let users customize application menus, launchers, and icon arrangements, primarily for Linux desktop environments like GNOME, XFCE, and Rofi, with a few menu bar apps for quick access or icon reshaping. The dated history is thin, with a handful of entries scattered from 2012 to 2016, a small concentration in 2021-2022, and a couple in early 2026. The most active member is deskart with 4 stars, followed by default-editor-switcher with 2 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 10 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
