I got here a comment that LXDE is somehow "deprecated", not actively developed, entailing that the problems some programs may have in LXDE (qBittorrent, in the case of the linked comment) should be dismissed on that basis.
What is the situation?
I hope I'm understanding this correctly. I don't know if that info is true, because LXDE is very much alive. I don't see any information on the LXDE site that indicates that.
Even Lubuntu is very much alive.
On both sites I don't see anything substantiating that note.
For the PCManFM changelog, you can find out about the changes Here and Here
For the LXPanel changelog, you can find out about the changes Here and Here
And for other components of LXDE visit the About page on the LXDE site
As per cipricus comment, and I agree with it, "that info is not true, because LXDE is very much alive"
