Well, Titan Panel is
not a LDB display mod like the rest of the non-FuBar mods mentioned here. It does not support LDB mods natively. It just "converts" LDB plugins you install into a native format so it can display them similar to how the old
Broker2FuBar did it for FuBar. It added this conversion ability when LDB plugins became ubiquitous.
With that comes overhead. More overhead when you include the native TitanPanel plugins (most all of which have LDB equivalents) that you personally may or may not want to use. Also, some LDB plugins may not display on it as well as you may get on a real LDB display mod. Like some people above, am not a fan of Titan sticking with their old display format and using a conversion process for LDB mods, instead of completely switching to LDB.
Recommendation for FuBar replacement: get a real LDB display mod and just the plugins you actually want to use with it. FuBar is totally obsolete & deprecated, won't be updated further & uses custom libraries that will never be updated (and use a fair bit of CPU time).
Some of the replacement suggestions above are great. For a bar-type display like FuBar was,
Bazooka (my fav of this type),
DockingStation or (if you want to go minimalistic)
NinjaPanel are all good options.
For a "block" type LDB display mod (puts the mod feeds in their own resizable "blocks"), there is
StatBlockCore (what I use),
Fortress &
Blockoland, among others.
And
ButtonBin (sort of a customizable cross between a bar & block type display) and many others. So lots of choice for a real LDB display mod.
The next thing is the plugins. Best place to start is on
WoWi here.
Curse is another site for them. And finally
WowAce is one of the "developer" sites of Curse, where you may find updated versions & unreleased plugins not on the main site yet.
If you have searched & searched and not found a replacement for one of your favorite old FuBar plugins yet that amazingly still works in WoW 4.3, ask here. If you stump the forum members here (highly unlikely), use
FuBar2Broker to get that old plugin showing on a LDB display.
