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.

>>55465968
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
