MATE is the only acceptable.

Mate

I am not devoted or anything so if I find another I will switch.

xfce with that whisker menu from xubuntu.

xfce and mate

gnome is for tablets, kde is disgusting and bloat, unity is hideous
>>
>>56330755
This.

MATE. Budgie Is pretty good too

If you like to spend time personalizing your desktop like I do then you should look into some light WMs. They can be quite fun to tinker with and really give you some interesting possibilities

For those who need a DE that just works I personally started with MATE and only recently switched to XFCE. You can probably get a lot of the same control with their respective WMs as well.

I am tripping on acid and really want a hug. Like, fucking badly - it's a weird feeling.

GNOME3

Just go get your mom?

Openbox. Just openbox. No idea what lxde brings to the table.

Disgusting.

Using Ubuntu MATE and I like it a lot.
>>
the only thing i don't like about xfce is the window placement. i don't know how this shit works and everything i've googled doesn't seem to work. some windows stay where i want them to stay, others resize and move around.

that's pretty much the only annoying thing about xfce. also screen tearing, but that's an easy fix.
>>
>>56330896

my dudes, i use gnome on my desktop and osx on the laptop for that delicious keyboard driven workflow

LXDE and LQTX when openSUSE fucking make it stable

>>56330521
No DE is best DE.

I roll my own keeping bloat to a minimum. What's the point of installing software if you aren't going to use it?
>>
>>56330521
I tried to disable baloo searching crap, but KDE developers decided that: "There is no explicit “Enable/Disable” button any more. We would like to promote the use of searching and feel that Baloo should never get in the users way"

And you can't delete this crap from your machine.

So, I'm looking for decent DE whose developers are not morons
>>
Cinnamon!

I used to hate it, but they fixed it up and right now I think it's the best GTK3 approximation of a classic desktop.
>>
>>56331786
For some reason my frame rates would drop with cinnamon

You can tell it's burgerland time when nobody recommends KDE.

why are kde fags so shit

>>56330521
MATE.

MATE-GTK3 is looking fucking great, too. I use it on my desktop and it's the first GTK3 DE that hasn't burned my eyes into my skull. It's pretty much superior to MATE in every single way.

I'm waiting for it to hit upstream before I put it on my laptop though, wanna make sure they squash all the bugs.
>>
>>56330521
Anyone knows how to let panels ALWAYS be covered by windows? when i hover the cursor over the side where the panel is, it pops up (its not set to hidden btw). Is this a bug on kde 4.14.2?

mate and xfce are both good

>>56330521
xfce is pretty much the only DE I use

I usually use i3 though
>>
xfce in da house!

Gnome 3

People who say otherwise need to start living in the current century. You're as stubborn as windows users who can't be bothered to learn better ways of doing things.

XFCE

>GNOME is resource heavy, requires at least 3 addons to be usable and as of now you need to install an unstable beta version just to get proper mouse settings

>KDE looks like fucking vista, and it's just as stable

>XFCE is fucking dead

>MATE doesn't have native compositing, but it does have a proper development cycle, has GTK3 support and is planned for wayland. Also very light weight and stable.

Pick your poison faggots

That is not even the default theme to begin with, not to mention that it is not even an argument, anyway: https://www.kde-look.org/
There are more on the internet, quit being lazy.

>just as stable
idk, kde4 here and it has been p stable for me.
