>compositor can't be disabled and makes games run like shit
Curious, what is this meme? It's common to run games in borderless fullscreen on Windows and I'm pretty sure that makes everything run through the compositor. You might lose a few fps but it's not noticeable most of the time.
Is the Gnome compositor really slow or something?

Last time I tried was kinda buggy tho

As a linux noob, I didn't dare ask the question, but yeah, it still seems to be under development. Assuming its new home is probably ran by a bunch of crazies or something.

I'm using OpenBox and tint2 for panels. It's minimal on resources and does everything I need it to do. Honestly think that DEs are restrictive.

Cinnamon

Yes, it is very slow. It also seems to be capped at 60Hz.

The only people who play borderless windowed are nu-males who have only used windows and think they're Jow Forumspcmasterrace despite playing with more input lag than the average console user.

I've tried all the major DEs and tried living with i3 exclusively for a month and I always come back to Cinnamon desu.

Only correct answer

Gnome 3 is sluggish and requires multiple extensions just to get basic functionality out of it. It's a few ms of extra lag over other environments on some actions, but those ms add up over time.

KDE Plasma is more buggy and requires tweaking to get basic stuff like sane shortcuts. I'm also not a big fan of the look and feel of KDE applications. The Gnome ecosystem feels more like home to me.

Cinnamon works okay and is pretty comfy, but is starting to look really aged.

MATE/XFCE/LXDE are something I would put on an old laptop, but not something I would use as a full fledged desktop environment on a modern desktop or laptop. ¨

Pantheon/Budgie seem pretty nice, but they still don't feel as mature as something like Gnome or KDE.

Nothing feels as comfy and just-works as Unity desu.

This

>MATE/XFCE
>not something I would use as a full fledged desktop
Why not? Xfce has more desktop features than gnome and is easier to use than KDE. It's also the most stable DE out there. It's literally the perfect DE.

>Nothing feels as comfy and just-works as Unity desu.
Unity is/was as bloated and heavy as GNOME. The only good thing about it was the UI layout and those global shortcuts it had. But it's worse than xfce. To make a simple desktop/panel/menu shortcut to a file you have to edit ".desktop" files on Unity/GNOME, while Xfce ships with Menu Libre which makes it significantly easier and less autistic.

Unity performs way better than Gnome and doesn't require multiple extensions for basic features, those are my main issues with Gnome.

XFCE just doesn't feel like a full-fledged modern DE to me. I'm not saying it's bad, just not something I would personally use as my daily driver when I'm not limited by resources.

Honestly, stock Gnome is /comfy/ as fuck. It's the only DE that is simple and responsive to use without being ancient. KDE has way too much widget bloat and XFCE is way too old and lacking in new functionality (3D compositing, sensible window snapping). Also, lots of people will tell you about MATE, another meme DE along the lines of XFCE (with more widget/option bloat). No one supports MATE and it was a dying DE since it was first made.

I honestly can't find anything better than Xfce. KDE has the best software imho, but it's UI is a clusterfuck and the kwallet shit is very annoying and should be removed.

KDE and MATE are my favorites

KDE is unironically the best at the moment.

KDE doesn't work well on novidia GPUs
GNOME is javascript shit
XFCE screen tearing
And no loonix distros support video hardware acceleration in browsers, resulting in much shorter battery life, stuttering and overheating

Awesome wm, rxvt unicode as file manager

Seems like Cinnamon is the only one that isn't buggy or sluggish according to you, the only complaint is it's look.

That said, you can use themes to pimp it out.

can't you just install unity on a newer version of ubunut/debian?

What's wrong with i3 user?

use a WM like i3 w/polybar

And waste days trying each of them?
No thanks :D

gnome3 is very divisive
just try it and kde

just use a window manager at this point

Same, unity not being supported anymore made me discover kde's plasma though so it's not all that bad...

I'm using Budgie on Solus right now. It works well enough and stays out of my way. They're fixing all of my complaints in the upcoming 10.5 release too, so I think I'll be using it for a while. Also Solus itself is pretty amazing. Despite being a rolling release distro its more stable than Ubuntu LTS was on any device I used it on over the last 10 years.

Glad to see people are finally praising Unity. It really was something. Its too bad they put all of their manpower into the also abandoned Unity 8. If they had just focused on improving the stability and performance of Unity 7 instead it would have easily been the objective winner of the DE wars. I don't know if that would've been enough to win over Canonical haters, but what can you do? If there's one good thing to come out of Unity dying its that the hate towards Canonical has been somewhat shifted to Red Hat and Gnome, both of which are far worse than Canonical ever was.

The quickest way to make KDE plasma's de look like unity is to install this theme called modern.

One of the things I liked about Unity the most is that it was the only DE with fractional HiDPI scaling that worked properly. On KDE, when you use fractional hidpi many of the text and icons on so many programs and even the system settings is blurry.

I'll just keep using Unity until there's another good DE available. Probably when the budgie guys finish rewriting Budgie on Qt.

That might not happen. They only experimented with it, and honestly, Budgie is good as is. 10.5 will make it perfect for me. Its to bad Ikey is alone, depressed, and low on cash in London. Things are happening more slowly than I'd like. Not that it matters too much though. Solus is still the fastest and most stable desktop experience I've ever used.
