I've been enjoying KDE Plasma, but do not have experience with any others so I could not really rank it. I went with KDE based on reading that it was at the forefront when it came to HDR support, and I could also get Wallpaper Engine working with it.

Have you gotten WP engine working on it? I can't the plugin going
Yes, I am using wallpaper engine. I followed the instructions on the plugin's Github page.

Interesting. You did almost all the good ones. Would've liked to see Enlightenment too.
As a KDE hater, I do not endorse or in any way encourage usage of this tier list as an informative source.
Why do you hate KDE?
Their priorities (specifically the lack of focus on stability), future plans, reliance on binary names and their UI design in general. I just like different options. Also I disagree with TLE in a lot of things too.
I don't get why people rave about it...
Everytime I tried it, I just couldn't understand why would anyone like it
I do like it, which is why I asked why people hate it. I personally like the windows style layout, the customization is really nice, and anecdotally it works really well. It's more modern looking out of the box compared to other windows style-by-default DEs too. I just hate GNOME personally, but that's mostly because the "workflow" and general organization is different than I'm used to
