    Gnome. Very sane defaults and flow, customizable. Also fully navigable both via mouse and keyboard, which works great for me since I navigate my system and apps using both almost equally. It’s gotten hate for relying on extensions, but for me it makes it feel modular and customizable.

    KDE Plasma. Unless you’re a keyboard heavy user, there’s no reason not choosing it. It’s the overall winner hands down.

    Plasma.

    The first reason I prefer it is that when internet becomes unavailable while connected to the router, it changes the icon. The second is that is settings easy and KRunner is very handy. The third is that it looks cool for me, especially while using Latte Dock. It’s transperancy effects are very impressing. The fourth is the integration of server-side-decoration for Qt apps (with Latte Dock).

    TL;DR, the above reasons are completely based on look & feel and ease of use

    KDE Plasma, it’s been nothing but a great experience, it’s a beast of an environment. Plus, its accompanying software ecosystem makes it 10x better.

    I really enjoyed the Deepin Desktop Environment.

    Lubuntu 18.04 on my old laptop. Fast and simple to use, but there aren’t many customizations.

    XFCE is my go-to when I need to choose a DE (but tbh I’m always on a tiling WM so I don’t really know if another DE would suits my needs better).

    I’ve been using XFCE with BSPWM as my window manager and I love it
