If I have resources Cinnamon.
If I don't have resources XFCE.
Sorry MATE.
Thanks Cinnamon it is ! :D
Yeah, it's kinda sad, because I really like Mate, but it does feel like it's too much of a jack of all trades. It's like Mate is always good, but there's always a better option. Plus it seems like every update takes longer than the previous one. I'm starting to worry about it's future.
I do like that I can theme MATE to look like OSX.
Also been using Regiolith (version of i3 dm) as well on Ubuntu and Debian
I've used XFCE for old netbooks, it always felt like it was too bare bones. But TBH it's prob the lightest thing that doesn't look like garbage.
Cinnamon always felt like it was too fancy for me, but I get that it's great for most folks.
TBH if your using either Debian or Ubuntu, changing your DM is a much easier thing to flip flop on. Nixos always worries me for gaming.
This is the way.
