I have not tried it. This is because of the performance issue. XFCE uses Gtk. My use of LXQT is only as a pathway to EDE.

Can you find a halfway decent looking screenshot of EDE? Something that doesn't look reminiscent of 1995? I know the bells and whistles don't really bother you but I was just wondering if anyone has gotten it to look ok.
Second question. What would a user do in the case of wanting a third party application (bleachbit for example)? Most recent GUI apps require gtk/Qt. Isn't the choice of application severely limited by removing gtk and Qt?

The short answer is no. However... now that I put
Firmware: BADUSB behind me (it cost $1000 USD...
)
I guess I will have time to reach out to the
EDE guys to get them to consider NTK (
FLTK + Cairo) instead of
FLTK
(see...
http://non.tuxfamily.org/e-517eedad832f11.95473617.png )
or... just throw
EDE under the bus and create a

DirectFB ...
Fox toolkit ...
Desktop metaphor using
PekWM ...
Xfe ... Qingy and Bar (by Lemonboy) for starters.

The short answer is correct. However... the choice of a lightweight toolkit interface (or lack thereof in the case of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xlib/ XCB )
should be primarily limited to the
Desktop metaphor instead of applications because of that.

I do not have XFCE performance issues (I don't use it)... I'm saying ALL things Gtk/Qt have performance issues (such as...
Code bloat ).

@ brokenman...
Yep... Non is the real deal. It's not Gtk/Qt bloated like Rosegarden.

And it's part of the Slackware pantheon... thanks to our friends @ Studioware.

@ Evan...
The last
EDE commit was in December...
(see...
https://sourceforge.net/p/ede/code/3601/ )
The package is in the USM...
(see...
http://slakfinder.org/show.php?pkg=630360 )
Pls Note: Last Friday I did an IPS build which uses LXQT/
PekWM .
Sometime this week... I should have a
EDE /
PekWM version.
However... ultimately I will make a pure
PekWM ...
Xfe ... Qingy... and Bar (by Lemonboy)
Desktop environment ...

EDE has to be configured to deprecate LXQT in 003-lxqt.xzm... it's not a drop-in module package.
