#Linux What is your favorite desktop environment and why? :linux: I'm currently considering to switch away from GNOME the main reason i use it is because of the dash to dock feature (until recent events good stability ) . But i don't know much about any other environment than KDE and GNOME and i dislike KDE's task bar

@weirdmedia Consider #OpenBox as in @bunsenlabs #BunsenLabsLinux or #Sway, which is a lightweight #i3-gaps-inspired compositor based on #Wayland.In fact, @BrodieOnLinux looked at Sway some time ago...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09mQAZAzwJg

@kkarhan @weirdmedia @bunsenlabs @BrodieOnLinux Window managers aren't Desktop environments though.To answer the question: KDE is currently the best one for me. GNOME is too locked down so if the defaults aren't to your liking, tough titty. KDE is lately even more performant than XFCE, so there really isn't a reason to shoot for a more "lightweight" DE.Now with WMs of course the choice is more diverse. I haven't played with Wayland thanks to Nvidia, so my own favorite is JWM. Does everything I need in a very light package and is configurable "easily" by editing one file.

@weirdmedia I like KDE. If you don't like the default task bar, you can customize it. Move it, change size, add or remove widgets, delete it entirely, do whatever you like. https://kde.org/plasma-desktop/
