Worth looking at Trinity (KDE3 fork/continuation).
XFCE looks like it’s trying to go from lightweight to fattiest some upgrades too. Still, very elegant, and you wont notice that on new beefy hardware. But on ancientware, … best stick to LXDE, or even just openbox, or any other window manager, pretty much.
IceWM, calls itself a window manager, but it seems to cover all the main basics for a desktop environment feel.
There still be places to go to get the light, fast and shiny in FOSS, even if KDE went nuts around 15 years ago (whenever KDE4 was).
Oh. Thanks. I wouldn’t/didn’t know. GNOME’s insanity is even greater than KDE4’s insanity. So insane (and anti-user) it overshadows its other flaws. I cant even bring myself to suffer it to find out its bloated.
KDE4. Plasma. The fattiest FOSS has to offer.

Didn’t KDE fix many of its mistakes from version 4? We’re on KDE 6 now.
It did. Even by KDE5 (which frankly I cant see much difference from KDE6).
But still, it’s never perfect.
And is still the fattiest FOSS has to offer.
Compared to GNOME, it’s still fairly lightweight.
