So myself, I prefer KDE (Kool Desktop Environment). They were on KDE v2.x something when I first encountered it.
A close second would be the Cinnamon desktop for Mint.
As for distros, I've of course dabbled with many, and used various for special purposes. The very first one I used was Knoppix on a LiveCD. The ones I have used long term for my primary computers were mainly PCLinuxOS early on, Mandriva for a couple years, then for a few years Mint, and the last few years Manjaro. I'm not sure now when I first used linux, but it was around 2002 or 2003. I spent a couple years just experimenting part time with different distros until I felt comfortable using it as my primary OS. It seemed too good to be true for something free, and in a way still does.
