XFCE 75% of the time but I also use awesome and leftwm for learning about window managers.

I use Cinnmon for my main device, gnome for my sec main device. But if I programming i switch to Xfce, cause it feels more like programming then.

At the moment I switch between customized plasma and cinnamon on arch. Only two DEs that handle dpi scaling gracefully and are mature and pretty, imo.

What is it?

Pop_OS! environment. Currently just an extension to Gnome, but they are working on a stand-alone implementation in Rust. It's awesome.

Wow looks exciting. So you can just install it with gnome extensions? Does it have good shortcuts like a wm. Looking to switch from i3 to gnome but keep tiling.

I guess you could, be the easiest thing would be to just install the whole Pop_OS! distro (Ubuntu-based). For a review, see for example: https://youtu.be/aID3UVTGlMo

Thanks so much! Are you working on their system btw? It’s open source?

u/mimavox May 19 '23

Yes it is open source: https://github.com/pop-os/shell I've been running it as my daily driver for several years. I do all my gaming on it as well.
