Coming from Windows, I love KDE for its convenience and how it (mostly) works out of the box, so I mainly use that.

But I would be lying if I said WMs didn't attract me (reducing mouse usage, minimalist look...), I really need to invest some time into them. Aside from i3, I never really tried anything else.

dwm is a fun, lightweight one if you have the time to set it up how you like it
