Due to computer games, my desktop PC runs Windows 11, but my dissatisfaction with Windows is growing. I use MacOS on my MacBook Pro because it works so nicely with my other Apple devices, but I need a change every now and then and try new things, so I installed Linux Mint Cinnamon on a relatively old laptop and it's a great pleasure to work on it. So at the moment I would say that Linux Mint Cinnamon is my favourite operating system.

I hate cinnamon, but everyone has different tastes: I when I use linux, if I need to have gui installed mate, or else system will go rm -rf / I saw gnome, desktop doesn't work with orca, menu start stopped working after some updates, so mate all the way, I tried kde, but i gave up on it, it just didn't clicked out, desktop was not accessible, menu start too. everything is bork. mate is not, for some reason, so I have it on my debian vm on utm. I'm forced to use debian, as I can't find fedora mate arm64, or fedora with old gnome 40.0
