I wanted to get a feel for everyone’s thoughts on desktop environments (or window managers if you don’t use a DE). I’m new to Lemmy, so apologies if this is too low-effort a post.

Personally I’m running KDE on my main computer, but I have an Arch virtual machine I use for more experimentation. That VM has seen KDE, i3, and will probably see hyprland at some point soon

    Totally valid! I use KDE because I like eye candy. I also like the ability to have a menu bar like macOS does.

    Is Cinnamon in the repos? I’ve used Cinnamon when I played around with Linux Mint. It’s pretty fast, no real complaints with it. Customization can be difficult ime, which is part of the reason I went with KDE. Themes and whatnot are so easy to find because of the downloader built in

      Yes it’s in Extra so it can be installed quite easily: Arch Cinnamon

      Themes can be installed from within it’s Settings Menu, so I can’t complain there 😊
