Which distro do you find the most visually appealing? (lemm.ee)

It's in the eye of the beholder, of course. But it would be great to see some solid recommendations.

Agreed. I think it's not about distros we should have pay attention, but desktop environments.

And about "most appealing" DE I think it's subjective. Surely KDE has the most flexible structure and may be exactly what you want, but Gnome is also appealing for some people (myself included).

Again, there is no right or wrong, just personal preferences

    You don't need much to make something look fancy or modern. Even XFCE can look modern.

    edit: made it less offensive.

    Good for you that you like your XFCE environment

    I would like to see how your desktop is, if you don't mind

    However, again, it's personal preference

    Can't. feddit.de can't upload images and in browser i suddenly get a server error(?) with my lemmy.ml account.

    Well uh, left bar with virtual desktop overview bottom, window buttons top, autoexpand
    right bar with network and systemload bars top, sensor numbers bottom, fixed size
    top bar Android style with left hand clock and date, whiskermenu (symbol view) as the empty space in the center (title only and whitespaces as title), right hand systray with mail and connman-gtk, pulseaudio plugin. Bars are on intelligently autohide, theme is Adapta.

    This is on my notebook with touchscreen.

    Nice thing is, XFCE can pin bars to specific displays or main display. Meaning, if i plug my ultrawide in, the top bar stays on notebook while left and right bar switch to the ultrawide, a center bar with Wiskermrmu with list view for desktop usage appears.
