You know why, some years back, I stepped carefully away from XFCE4?
Because it uses (shares) a very great deal of GNOME's core software
infrastructure.

You know what 'gvfs' is short for? GNOME virtual file system. Now you
know. (Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.)

I'm sorry that the GNOME brittle software used in your DE breaks a bit
when you kick away a piece of what it checks for, but that's
unfortunately exactly what I have come to expect it to do, even when the
label on the tin says 'XFCE'.

I wish you luck with your experiment, but I'd honestly recommend trying
something else, instead. LXQt seems promising for people who like DEs,
or Enlightenment. (Personally, I'm just not a DE person.)

Above is of course entirely my opinion. You'll do what you wish, and
'Good on ya!' as the Aussies say.
