Who said anything about desktop icons? I use dwm, st, and dmenu.
There's no way I would use a bloated desktop that makes my ram usage be
measured in GB right after starting xorg.

I also dislike Moonchild's obsession with bundled libs, and sadly, some
options for building palemoon with system libs are broken.
Also, it's build script uses python2...

Preferably not chromium based and not tied to google/mozilla/<other big
