Third time lucky. Xfce, this time. We check the best Xfce desktop of the year, with focus on aesthetics, ease of use, stability, and long-term support. Take a look. https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/best-xfce-2019.html Cheers, Mrk
Xfce looks tired now and most distros require some serious tweaking to achieve a smart looking desktop. One exception that hits you out of the box and also conforms to your other requirements for inclusion is Voyager so my vote goes there. https://voyagerlive.org/voyager-18-04-lts/
