As a beginner I mainly focused on Cinnamon, XFCE and GNOME but want to try out a windowing DE on a VM to get a feel for things.
What window manager DE would you recommend to a first timer that doesn’t use tiling DEs?
There seems to be pretty popular ones like i3 and hyprland.
I was also hoping if some wm’s still have a task bar as I am comfortable using that to keep a traditional style as I come from a long line use of Windows as well (starting from the XP era)
Thank you if you have any recommendations, it is good to branch your horizons a bit!
What I went with was installing LXQT so I have everything I’m used to working out of the box (language and keyboard setting, network manager, auto mounting of USB sticks, fonts, screen settings, autostart, etc). Then just replace the window manager with a tiling WM.
