I like some of LXQt tools, but at one point do you decide if you're going to use Qt... why not just go all out and use KDE?
Because it uses 250 MB of RAM on a well-optimized distro (e.g. installing it on DietPi), instead of 1.5 GB of RAM.
So does many of the GTK tools though... so, again... why use Qt at all if you want to save memory.
I use Hyrpland, and so there are times where I need to use GTK or Qt tools. I generally don't like KDE-based tools though because they are dependency-heavy.
So....
2.0 was a switch to QT6
and
2.1.0 brings us Wayland? Very exciting! Definitely will check it out (as a full session), as I always pick apps from either XFCE or LXQT for my tiling window manager set up. I've been using Thunar lately, though I'm open to switching back to pcmanfm if I want to.
LXQt is the best desktop environment plus it's so lightweight. LXQt is proof GNome is a bloated hot garbage.
