Also for example icewm and fvwm seem to be both window managers and
DE's?
Since getting into Debian I've progressed down the scale (of bloat) from
KDE to Xfce to Enlightenment to Fluxbox. I'm very happy now but guess I
may get bored and try something else but fluxbox is lean mean but pretty
functional.
I like basic functionality, configurability, without bloat; I have been
running a 486 for years...
I use icewm. It does everything I want without the struggle of adding
features to a less featurful wm and is low on resource usage. It must
be fast because it doesn't get in the way on the 486.
