lxde?  its super lightweight and a full desktop. I've always prefered it for my 
laptops,  but unfortunately I don't think its maintained anymore. Its my 
understanding the devs have now moved to lxqt which is pretty much as bloated 
as xfce.  I think maybe just Sticking with xfce might be a better idea.

I completely understand wanting to get rid of KDE at this point.  because the 
newer KDE versions are so buggy.  I also don't like the direction its gone with 
removing options that past versions had, or how its become less easily 
customizeable as well. So I wasn't too upset at qubes not updating to the 
latest version so quick.  I'm glad qubes came to this decisions because even 
though I have always preferred KDE,  the new versions are worrysome. I also was 
never a fan of gnome at all.  gnome-flashback was only thing I liked since it 
wasn't bloated and mysterious.  But  XFCE is definitely the way to go now imo.
