With the right amount of customization yeah it can look really fancy. I could be mistaken but I recall Elementary OS' Pantheon came from xfce/xubuntu originally.
However I'm still partial to KDE/Plasma personally as it does 99% of what I need out of the box.
That's the great thing about Linux though. It's exactly as bespoke and custom as you want to make it.
Huh. Last time I used it, I didn't fiddle much. Guess I didn't dig enough into it up see the fancy stuff.
Sadly, KDE Plasma has not yet secured the windowing protocols, so applications can freely record your screen. Only GNOME stops this ATM. Not a deal breaker, and KDE plans on improving this. Still a security risk.
