I have never used it, probably I have given up on Trinity (old) and KDE (bulky). Currently downloading them
It is maintained by a nice Spanish guy.
It is not lean and is bigger than LXQT
It is Window like and easy for a guy who comes from Windows.
It has the NEXT and NEXT approach of Windows.
Trinity desktop has the ability to install any application free and proprietary.
One can install synaptic package manager and abiword.
But I prefer the modern looking KDE but it lacks applications.
Lot of hard work to get things going.
Thank you Google blog spot for letting me paste images in this blog piece.
Trinity Desktop- Q4OS
Q4OS is a Debian-based desktop Linux distribution designed to offer classic-style user interface (Trinity) and simple accessories, and to serve stable APIs for complex third-party applications, such as Google Chrome, Virtual Box and development tools.
The system is also very useful for virtual cloud environments due to its very low hardware requirements.
Trinity desktop option
lightweight, fast, efficient, in many ways surpasses competition. In our
opinion, a highly underrated desktop environment. Mainstream Linux
distributions don't support Trinity at all, but we love it so much, that
Trinity is even a dedicated download option, right after the default
Plasma desktop.
Dual desktop ready
a unique alternative that makes possible setting up multiple desktop environments, typically Plasma and Trinity, side by side without interfering with each other. Carefully separated, ready to run as required, waiting for action. Just select the desired one at login time .. read more

Windows installer
an exclusive way to put Linux alongside Windows. Just run a setup wizard from within Windows and install Q4OS as easily as any other application. Although installed within windows, Q4OS kernel takes full control of the hardware. That is much more efficient than running a virtual machine .. read more
