Spent lots of time with Gnome 2.
In Dec 2024 I got hooked in Hyprland on Arch and have a cool rice for it. But I’ve tried KDE on desktop now with Parrot OS since Plasma is popular. Still need to find some cool dot files or rice it myself.
I’ve noticed SwayFX getting lots of love lately. I might use that as an option with Plasma but am afraid of conflicts. I’m excited about it since Linux has now officially replaced windows on my gaming rig, which is the very last MS computer left in my house.
I use Cinnamon, it’s not much, but it just works.
I was on Mate back in the day since I did not have good enough computer to upgrade to Cinnamon. Used it for several years to finish Master’s thesis. It certainly gets the job done.
