I prefer those tools, which does the job best: Sometimes MC, sometimes the commandline and sometimes graphical tools. And I gife a f..k on this, what people tell about my tools. This includes also weindowmanagers: Sometimes I am using LXDE or LxQT (i.e. on my EEEPC), sometimes Plasma5 and sometimes XFCE (this also with kali- undercover). I also checked with TDE (fast on my EEEPC), but as it got interfered with Plasma5, I had do deinstall it (for those who are interested: The interference was with ksysguard and kmail, there were suddenly two of them with same menuentries, same icons and both interfered each other). However: That is what counts in linux: Doing one tool for one task at itss best! Have fun!
