I spent way too much time trying to figure out which desktop environment is the one I should use. 25 years ago, it was something I cared a lot about.
For me today, I don't think it really matter because they are equivalent.
Frankly, all modern operating system desktop environments are good enough. I can install applications, launch applications, configure wifi, reboot, etc... What I need day-to-day is a pretty short list. The real determining factor is application support and that is what determines where I'm going to be working.
As a Linux user for ~25+ years (family PC ran Red Hat) I've learned not to stray from the beaten path. This is why I like defaults. It's usually the most tested.
