picrel was the actual peak of linux desktop
everything got bloated and completely taken over by tranny nutjobs and incompetent hypersensitive soydevs after this

xfeces is literally almost as heavy as KDE
if you get rid of balloo and the other nonsense KDE has slapped on top, you're left with a bit more functionality than xfeces, and better performance
the only point it still sucks at is size, KDE is much bigger than xfeces.
if you want something lightweight, try mate, or literally i3/dwm.

even before CSD, something about xfce never sat right with me. i don't know what it is - i can't quite articulate it. maybe it's thunar? anyway trinity and mate are better
