Alright /g/entoomen, what's the best desktop environment that's lightweight (or at the very least performs well) but also good looking/minimal and full featured?

I'm tired of running dwm/awesome/openbox and managing the fifty million extra packages to provide hot plugging storage, GTK themes, icon sets, etc., etc.

Maybe it's just because I don't have enough time to play around with more than a few DE's, but is there any simple way to unfuck the "clutter" in xfce's taskbar?

unless you're still on a single core pentium, pretty much every de is lightweight by todays specs, so check them all out and go with the one you find comfy

I have to admit I like plasma so far, but for some reason urxvt simple shows a big pink window whereas it works in openbox/etc.

gnome works really well
but about being lightweight ... the only computers I use that aren't headless have 32 and 16 GB of ram and fairly powerful processors

I worked my way through it pretty quick, things like frames, extra buttons, notification icons, etc.
