@fugepe Wow, not a lot of replies are saying Gnome, but there's a lot more XFCE than I thought I'd see

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i3 on my laptop, gnome on my gaming rig (cuz wayland)
FVWM.
I've used gnome for years, about a month ago I decided to give KDE a try on my old spare laptop. Two days later it was on my desktop and work laptop. I am loving KDE.
i3 counts, right? I have always been a keyboard oriented user and a big part of what drove me from Windows is them breaking or changing the hotkeys I used regularly. To me it is the perfect "you have control, this is your device, it works and looks how you want." wm
Vanilla Gnome Shell. I know it's heresy, but I've been using it since beta and I actually enjoy the work flow.
KDE if I have performance to spare. XFCE if I am running this in a container on my phone.
