One you like the aesthetic and functionality of?
At least give us some details about what you need faggot.

Why not just a wm like Openbox, i3, dwm or Awesomewm? I feel like a lot of people use de's and don't actually need them.
Aiden Sullivan
I preferably want an actual DE, not a WM (i3, awm, etc.), I'm thinking like GNOME, XFCE4, etc. And I would like to blur stuff, so I may go XFCE4 with Compiz Reloaded. IDK. That's why I'm asking for suggestions by other people.
Jordan Jackson
If you're into KDE their compositor actually does have quite a few effects like that without requiring you to look in to compiz. Gnome can also work with compiz and is easy as FUCK to use, xfce is fine but it takes so long to get to a reasonable level.
Ethan Diaz
LXQt or KDE
David Foster
Openbox.
Ryder Green
xfce4 is broken, you click on the start icon and it automatically closes unless you click it "just right"
Julian Turner
>LXQt
why?
James Sullivan
XFCE4 or i3
Everything else is shit.
Andrew Reyes
KDE.
Alexander Lewis
so you go and install arch, then want to use a DE instead of a WM?
did you miss the point of arch?
Parker Cook
What?
Jacob Fisher
CDE. It's opensauce now.
Ethan Jackson

Joshua Rogers

There's nothing you can do with Arch that you can't do with Ubuntu.

Pretty much my realization after using i3
I navigate around faster and feel more organized with i3 and no launcher beats dmenu or rofi

$yaourt -S mpc-qt

Suicide would be better

Just compile it instead of relying on the untrusted AUR
Austin Butler
Go ahead, compile it yourself. Post results. I will be waiting.
The compilation takes less than a couple of minutes.

GNOME - Surprisingly complete and stable, not state-of-the-art in usability
KDE - Polished, looks pretty good, not very space efficient or consistent
Unity - Usability, well-documented and maintained, may not look very good to your taste
Daniel Walker
just use aweseome WM

What's your point?
I use packer though
Christopher Cox
An Arch user admitting Arch is a meme/rice OS, basically.
Parker Ortiz
Every computer, unless it's a server. Then just go with debian.
