What desktop environments are you using?

Not counting the Steam Deck, since KDE isn't actually turned on while you're running games.

Normally I'm a Gnome guy, but I'm building a tiny low power portable computer and wanting to keep resource utilization low, so I'm investigating other options.

    Whatever comes with mint? I had a hard drive die, and my buddy hooked me up when I realized I couldn't read the windows key on the sticker any more. He was going to do some kind of fuckery to let me keep 7 despite that, but he'd been talking about Linux for a few years, so I asked what he thought about that.

    He asked me a few questions, about what kind of programs I need to use, and when none of them were a pain in the ass for an idiot like me to deal with, he set it up for me. Told me it was mint, helped me set things up where they look nice and made sure I have what I need. Haven't fucked with anything since, and that was about two years ago.
