I've been using Linux Mint almost exclusively for the last 10 years. I've always stuck with Cinnamon, it just works for me. I'm not into fiddling around or fancy effects, my computer/desktop environment is a means to an end for me, that is, using my computer for a purpose, not to spend too much time fiddling around with the computer itself or having the desktop get in the way. Mint also has XCFE and and Mate editions, and I suppose there are ways to put the other desktop environments on it too. What say you? What's your favorite Linux Desktop Environment.

Windows responses get the :gamer-gulag:

    Personally, I mainly use Sway, but it's definitely not a ready-to-use desktop environment for most people. I find GNOME 40 to be basically trouble-free, so on any computer big enough to handle it, I consider it my fallback, especially when I want family members to be able to use my login. I like the "TIling Assistant" extension for improved tiling with it, and Dash-To-Dock and Blur My Shell for aesthetics.
