Why isn't razorqt as popular as lxde, xfce, or mate?
It runs smoother than all of them while still managing to look quite nice overall.
It seems to use ~30mb more ram on my pc than mate does on Ubuntu, but it does run quite a bit smoother overall too.
I've only had it for 3 days and I'm loving it so far.
Pic is a random pic of razorqt from google, not posting my own desktop on /g/ because I don't want any issues, I just want to discuss DEs.
What are some other lightweight and nice looking options to try out? I tried installing Trinity but it's not showing up as a DE on the login menu.
For some reason it's using much more ram in this chart, but on my pc at home it's only using 340MB on boot, Ubuntu mate uses ~300 to 310MB on boot.

Here's the link to the original article, it's 3 pages long, but worth the read.

It's basically the same thing desu, the devs merged the projects to make lxqt happen.

lxqt is not unusable but still beat quality.

One thing I don't like about LXDE is that as far as I could tell when I tried it, you could only open the file manager from quick launch.
Is there another way or has that been fixed in lxqt?
I understand lightweight DEs have compromises but some of them are a little annoying imo

lxqt should have the same features as razor-qt, so if razor-qt can change it, lxqt should be able to
