Which is the comfiest DE and why is it Cinnamon?

Looks like something made by an edgy kid.
looks like a shitty skin for Win XP made in 2003 by a bored teenager.
2009 wants its theme back
This is the best desktop experience that Linux has to offer? Glad I'm a Windows 10 user.

Sure, freedom would be nice but not at the expense of having to use Linux in its current form

I spend my time actually doing things instead of sitting all day in terminal.
xfce
because whisker
>>54182793
oh its transparency
dont they teach that when you do transparency you have to blur the background so its not confusing like in UI design 101 ?
>>54182793

>>54182827
Shit that looks nice. I really like that.
>>54182694
For some reason I did not notice any performance improvements with cinnamon over gnome shell at all and it turned out to be laggy for me, so I don't see a reason to use it over Mate or XFCE, or even the gnome shell which looks far better than cinnamon. But I did like their built-in application for downloading and installing themes, applets etc with nice preview.
>>54182827
whats this? is that default xfce or some addons etc ? looks comfy, please details
>>54182803
Good, retards like you waste our time on dumb questions. Stay with Windows.
>>54182849
Cinnamon is just riced gnome shell. It is cancer.

ITT: retards judging a DE by the used theme
Cinnamon is the best DE available. It is a fact.
OP is clearly a 12yo, who hasn't developed a good taste yet

Nice XFCE, anon!
>>54182909
RIP dockbarx. It is the comfiest panel application thing.
Also add a keyboard shortcut so you can launch it that way (I use Super+Z)
>>54182694
Because Cinnamon looks like Windows.
>using gtk3 ever
>>54183414
Christ that's ugly.
>>54182694
Was pretty good until gtk 3.20 came along. It broke many themes and there are still some odd unsolved glitches.
>>54182694
Wrong, OP. It's KDE. It's the best DE ever to exist.
No other qt or gtk based DE or wangblows DE can compete.
>>54182803

Insecure cuck spotted. Nobody asked how much you score on your farmvile dumb faggot
>using a desktop environment
Cinnamon protip: move taskbar to the top. Install Docky. Place Docky bar on the bottom with intellihide mode. God tier.

Shit negro it's better than OS X. Right click on dock icons to manage app Windows. I'll check out Cairo dock though.
>>54183978
But can it work without crashing? Because that would be pretty good feature, that Cinnamon seems to be missing.
>>54182909
>>54183339
Is dockbarx really kill, or will the developer update it soon? I'm trying out KDE now and kinda liking it, not sure if I want to go back to XFCE or not but I'm not going to bother with it unless it gets dockbarx back.
Windows 10

>best DE
xfce of course
>>54184073
Cinnamon isn't prone to crashing. I've been using it for a year or so and had a it had a few updates during that time. The stability is there. Gtk 3.20 made many cinnamon themes unusable and there are still some graphical glitches, but they're getting fixed as the themes are getting updated.
It's decent at best, but still the best DE there is.
>>54184073
Not a single crash in 6 months, maybe you meant KDE?
>>54186105
KDE is stable in my opinion. I've tried it on Antergos, KaOS, Manjaro and it worked great on every distro. Too bad it doesn't work well with proprietary AMD legacy drivers.
>>54184392
theme name please?
>>54186105
Wallpaper?
>>54186372
XFCE looks objectively the best.
Will any DE actually try to one up XFCE or have we reached peak
>>54182694
get your shit together OP
>>54184392
I didn't think anything could get worse than that file explorer...
and then I saw your firefox
