What is your favorite X desktop environment for Kali and why?

Hello folks.
I know this is not a useful post to discuss Kali here, but I am eager to know what is your favorite X Desktop Environment and why.

Personally, I tried GNOME, XFCE, PLASMA, Cinnamon, and few others, and my favorite is GNOME. I like its simplicity. What about you?

Thanks
Kali Linux General

xfce (light weight) and gnome is my second choice

Gotta be Gnome, for me. I’m just trying out the latest Kali install, and gnome 47, I believe. it’s very nice.

i do also use Pop Shell, which is the System76 extension which allows for automated tiling.

Hands down XFCE, the only one reliably and fluidly working over xrdp.
What doesn’t work well over xrdp isn’t even in the running.

KDE / Plasma for me. Ive been a KDE user for about 25 years now. Old habits die hard.

Wow, I’m a Linux user for less than few months. Still learning, and to force myself to learn more, I ditched all Windows operating systems I had, including the dual boot!

It isn’t difficult finding resources on the internet, especially on the torrent network. I prefer video courses and found a bunch. I only need time to watch, learn and practice. I wish the day was 48 hours rather than 24!

ALL OF THEM …i happen to fall in love with the developer’s creativity take on them i will use all and find that one am comfortable with…

depends on what your doing, I spend most of my time in Linux at a terminal, so doesn’t really matter…

use XFCE on Kali just as it comes as default, usually a tiling window manager on other Linux distros, and without the systemd mess as well given the choice…
