This one keeps being recommended, but I don’t know why. It’s not bad but it’s just not good enough.

A keyboard-oriented window manager.
I love the philosophy but find it poorly executed. When re-testing, the shortcuts don’t work under Virtual Box.

One of the more popular window managers.
I tried it a long time ago. Tested very briefly. Strongly dislike because of speed issues. Didn’t test for long enough to learn about the style of applications etc. I’ve developed a bias against Gnome in preference for KDE for reasons I can’t articulate. Gnome is kinda pretty, but KDE keeps my attention.
Gnome 2 was forked and continued by a new team as MATE.
