OpenBSD KDE Plasma Desktop
Well of course they're not trying to replace macOS, for instance, but when an OS gets big enough to have offshoots and different front-ends and desktop environments and so forth, one would assume there are at least experimental attempts emphasizing ease of use, just like there are experiments to develop offshoots for any other purpose, from power users to pen testers. At least like, someone's toy project on GitHub or SourceForge. I just assumed BSD was big and well-established enough to have such efforts.
Besides GhostBSD, looks like there's also Lumina, and TrueOS/Project Trident?

So many GTK Desktop Environments, yet so little Qt ones
That's a stretch. One former LXDE contributor, LStranger, wanted to continue the GTK version. The entire remaining developer team (including the LXDE founder PCMan) was like "whatever floats your boat, man" and decided to split up the projects in a friendly manner. But let's be honest here: Barely anything happens at LXDE any longer. Just look at the core component, PCManFM that is both the file manager and the desktop shell: https://github.com/lxde/pcmanfm/commits/master
What are some alternatives?
