Lumina desktop environment started life in BSD, but has been ported to Linux, and is available through the standard repositories in most Linux distributions.
Lumina uses the Qt5 framework and Fluxbox window manager. In a way its a lightweight version of the KDE desktop.
I have been unable to find Lumina pre-installed on any Linux distro, the only system I can find it on is FreeBSD’s TrueOS.
