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!

    i’m using kde plasma with krohnkite autotiling extension and i like having the best of both worlds. plasma’s implementations of wayland features and fully working dynamic autotiling, which i can control with my keyboard.
