There can be "issues" when running different DEs, like when I was messing
with LM a few years back their Cinnamon DE didn't seem to be too friendly
to others; but in linux theory it should be "problem free" . . . .

Back in the PPC days I ran Xubuntu with LXDE added . . . didn't seem to
cause problems . . . .  Now I have multiple OSs, and instead of having
multiple DEs I have variations of DE in the different systems . . . Plasma
seems to be very popular these days, and Lu is I think borrowing from
Plasma to do what it does, could be going to Plasma DE should be compatible
with modern Lu . . . or I have XFCE as the driver for one of my Manjaro
installs . . . XFCE is pretty good . . . lots of services, etc.  Cheap, etc.
