Comment on Poll: Linux users, what desktop environment do you use?

GNOME and KDE.

I used to use other stuff, but GNOME and KDE are "good enough" and I can make most of it disappear with extensions. I've tried tiling window managers (XMonad, Awesome, i3) and a few other DEs, and honestly, I find myself fiddling with them a lot, which isn't very productive. I use KDE on openSUSE because it's the default and works reasonably well and GNOME on Arch because it has worked reasonably well out of the box.

So yeah, I'm tired of fiddling with stuff and I trust both major DEs to properly implement Wayland and other tech without impacting my user experience much.
