CDE
>>
>>56780735
XFCE, lightweight, customization and it just werks. I tried running Gnome and I had to jump through a bunch of hoops to get basic stuff like having a dock at the bottom that hides and expands when you hover your mouse over it, and even then it wouldn't work.

>>56781805
they are just shilling.here's a quick explanation of the current linux DE's.
-gnome : best,most used.
-xfce : gnome rebuilt to be minimal on system resources but it a laggy piece of shit with old packages
-lxde : see above
-KDE : a very good looking DE very customizable and basically knows everything but you have to have a literal power-plant to run it woithout lagging.and its more likely to have bugs than gnome.

Cinnamon.

GNOME should be banned from earth.

>>56781984

KDE, hands down.
It's the only major DE that isn't for poorfags or retards.
>>
>>56782007
cinnamon. and yet another guy who uses gnome outdated gnome libraries enters the ring.but wait, this one is special, its ui is written in fucking JAVASCRIPT.

XFCE is GARBAGE and they don't even care anymore

Install KDE and don't listen to anyone talk shit about how much resource it uses unless you're going to use it for a computer over 10 years old.

laptop
>>
>>56782093
exactly what i was talking about.i7 processor,high end graphics card,shit ton of ram i dont have a power plant to run kde on but its a good DE.it would be great if it required less system resources because neither i and i think op has the computer to run it.
>>
>>56782141
see >>56782031

Frankly I'm happy at least one DE has the balls to exclude absolute poorfags. Go enjoy your garbage DEs like LXDE or xfeces, poorfag

I'm not mad, I am contemptuous. I wouldn't expect the Untermensch to grasp emotions more subtle than anger or love, however.

Bloated and buggy

Budgie, it's fast snappy and uses gtk and gnome apps by default. A little lacking in features though since it's new.

>>56782247
Yes

I'm no Jordan fan but man alive, he sure does matter-of-factly end/win his arguments online. Would cry if on receiving end of that post, 10/10.

>>56782256
He didn't ask about KDE.

>>56780735
I like XFCE but prefer GNOME. It's a bit more faster, and has a nice UI when using extensions.
