My super custom DE.
>>
I like KDE but I cannot have a good experience with it no matter how hard I try. On one distro it is pretty buggy and on the next there's not this cool new feature or package.

On the other hand, with GNOME there's no decent Google Drive integration and it's a mess to customize. Other DEs are buggy, primitive or lack customization. There doesn't seem to be an actual good option.

KDE is good because default setup looks like Windows and is very customisable without the need of learning a scripting language

But because only few distro use it by default, it lacks of devs and many bugs are here since forever, but it's getting better with KDE Neon

Also widget are useless

I was on KDE for years but I drop it because I was using it like an XFCE, so better install it coz it's lighter
>>
Xfce

>>61661471
dwm is my favorite, easily.

I use Gnome because when I teach, I don't want my interface to be scary and confusing to the plebs and I need to know how to do things in Gnome.

Xfce is the most comfy for me and i don't even know why.

i guess it has "something" that other DEs don't have dunno

Why use a DE at all?
I don't see any reason to do that.
I use i3

My own custom DE is my favorite DE.

I use XFCE. It uses hardly any resources and works great so I get the exact same experience across all of my devices, from my cheap notebook to my work laptop to my custom built desktop. The consistency is nice.

KDE Minimal, it uses around 400mb at first boot on my Arch installation, same on Debian... just fixed the font rendering to avoid the buggy start menu, also the xf86-input-libinput replaced in order to not get buggy fonts when scrolling.

That's where you're, kiddo.
>>61661471
Xfce on a desktop and i3 on a notebook.
>>
>>61661471
Xfce4 for casual use/gnome replacement after GNOME.went to shit
I3 for development

>>61661471
XFCE because it works, feels familiar to Winblows, and i think the mouse looks cute.

Unity. But I use fvwm with mostly KDE programms, because sadly there's no unity in Debian.
>>
Cinnamon.
It's not as big and fancy as KDE, but then again it's not butt fucking ugly like mate or xfeces and not pants-on-head retarded like gnome.
>>
>>61662271
also buggy unfortunately.

LXQt

>What's your favorite
Gee? That's a tuff one for me. I suppose they all have their pros and cons. Right now I use KDE because I've not used KDE since the last one. version 4.
>>
KDE of course
>>
>>61661471
XFCE
>>
>>61661939
I agree.
>>61662037
I like it because it is just the right amount of flashy. KDE comes out of the box with slow animations everywhere and all sorts of needless extra junk like KDE connect or whatever. XFCE on the other hand has too little, it looks a little ugly and lacks convenient extras in easy to get to places. Most of these complaints, if not all, could probably be fixed by putting some extra effort in, but hey, it just werks.
