XFCE or LXDE anyone? Honest question - If you use XFCE or LXDE or similar minimalistic DEs, are you happy with the choice? or do you feel somethings are missing that are available in KDE, MATE and the likes?

Me and probably a couple of other cave dwellers use Mate (someone must be, because it keeps getting maintained). It has a the Win 9x-era aesthetics and simplicity that I've not found anywhere else.

Yes, another MATE user here (UbuntuMATE). I like how efficient and boring it is. It's also very consistent.

But I'm worried we're being left behind with the shift to Wayland.

Maybe that is unfounded.
