Mint with Maté gets no love but it's so fucking great.

Have not tried a mate based de yet. Gonna try this out after kde fedora.

Been struggling to find a distro with good multi monitor multi aspect ratio setup without it fucking up when one is turned off.

What sets mate apart in your opinion?

I guess I just think that it's one of the easiest desktop environments for a transitioning Windows user to get used to despite the fact that I've personally used Linux for over 25 years starting with old school Red Hat 5 command line.

It doesn't default to dark themes like many DEs do lately...

There's other things .... Desktop shortcut naming.. idk
