Linux is only worth using if your time is worthless.

>>59961667
Void Linux, no DE. Openbox.

Arch and LXQt

>>59961761
I actually started using it because i was tired of wasting time troubleshooting xp. (my old comp can't handle win7)

Opensuse Tumbleweed and KDE

Debian testing and GNOME. GNOME because it's the only DE that is both stable and not naked like XFCE. Testing is a little buggy so on my next (re)installation of loonix I'm either going with Debian Unstable or Fedora.

>>59961667
Mint with Cinnamon.
Used to use Fedora with Gnome 3 but I hated the tablet interface and the dumb quirks of Fedora *tips*

Gentoo, and 2bwm.

Arch i3

void/i3 on laptop, arch/gnome on desktop

Arch Cinnamon

>>59961667
obongo + MATE

OpenSUSE Leap with MATE. Trying to decide if it's worth it to switch to Tumbleweed or not.

>>59961770
What exactly makes Openbox just a window manager instead of a DE? Never fully understood that distinction

>>59962751
A DE is a meta-package containing multiple ackagas, including a WM.

Look at it as a pre-boxed LEGO.
i'd rather build a house out of blocks i like than to use a prebuilt one with instructions.

(my analogy sucks, but yoo hopefully get my point)

>>59962822

GNU/Lubuntu/LXDE

>>59961667
ew linux. ew de.

>>59962822
That makes complete sense actually, thanks for the explanation. So what would those other packages be that would make up a full DE?

Xubuntu

>>59962893
file manager, toolbars, widgets, image viewer, etc.

Basically a full suite of programs designed to all work together to make a fully-fledged desktop environment.

>>59962893
depends on the DE actually. They can be fully fledged (GNOME, KDE [e.g. calculator, office, whatnot]) to minimal lxde, i3 and so on.
WMs can be undercategorized in tiling WNs and sracking WMs. you should be able to replace indicidual parts too with some efforts, if that is what you desire for whatever reason.

However, i recommend simoly googling guides or asking google directly such questions.
Or >>>/g/sqt/ as i feel not in spoonfeeding mood right now, sorry senpai.

Debian stable, Xfce

it Just Werks

Arch Linux with XFCE because I fell for the meme and am now too lazy to change for Fedora. Going to wait until Ubuntu 18.04 to go back to my sweet sweet GNOME

>>59961761
Windows is only worth installing on the metal of your machine if you have to (employer etc.) or you don't value your machine, your time, or your money. I use linux and windows in combo. Running windows on the metal is like you are renting your machine from microsoft.

Puppy Linux (tahrpup) for my old laptop, and ubuntu for my web server.

osx and kwm

Manjaro with XFCE. Pretty comfy, basically arch without the terminal autism.

>>59961667
Arch Linux KDE

>>59961667
Gentoo stable, with xfce, though sometimes I switch to awesome-wm for variety.

>>59962751
Tumbleweed is pretty great desu

Kubuntu, which answers the two questions. And yes, Kubuntu is indeed a distribution.

Void + sway

Manjaro
Xfce

>>59961694
>not using kde neon with gnome

Arch with GNOME, as of a few hours ago. Arch is interesting, it almost feels like it's meant to be a "learning distro" in that it forces you to do everything in atomic little pieces

I always found the tablet interface to be better.
In no world do I need to have 180 icons on my screen at once.

Reduce the clutter of your mind by expanding the size of everything on desktop. The iPhone can only hold 24 icons on screen at once and no one has any problems with its interface. It's so intuitive 5 year olds can learn it.

In the age of 1080p monitors where your eyes literally cannot utilize the real estate of the whole screen, is it really necessary to have 64x64 icons and 12 point text like we still have tiny CRTs and need to cram info onto them in order to get work done like it's 2002?
