The Best Linux Desktop Environments for Productivity

When using a VPS, one rather undermentioned use case is the ability to run a full desktop environment on your virtual machine via Remote Desktop Protocol. Linux desktop environments can be a fantastic way to boost and streamline your productivity. The use of a Linux GUI is an exceptional way to help increase output. We’re going to take a look at our 3 top picks for Linux desktop environments to run on a VPS.

Linux Xfce Linux Desktop Environment

Xfce is a lightweight Linux desktop environment for UNIX-like operating systems. It aims to be fast and low on system resources, while still being visually appealing and user-friendly. Linux Xfce holds to traditional UNIX modularity and re-usability. Consisting of a number of components, it provides the full functionality expected of modern desktop environments. Additionally, components come packaged separately! Consequently allowing you to hand pick packages to create the optimal personal working environment.

Linux Mint & Cinnamon Linux GUI

Mint is a well formed Linux GUI that is completely free and community run. Its latest release is solid with some big changes. Most of the changes won’t cause the average user any problems. Both Cinnamon and MATE look and behave more or less as they always have with a number of incremental improvements. Linux Mint boasts a modern, elegant and comfortable operating system which is both powerful and easy to use.

Linux Cinnamon and MATE have taken a slower, more progressive path to desktop design. Mint evolves overall rather than “revolutionizing”. This makes it more comfortable for newcomers.

Linux Gnome

Every part of Linux Gnome has been designed to make it simple and easy to use. The Activities Overview is an easy way to access basic tasks. View open windows, launch applications, or check for messages all in one click. Everything is in one place immediately in front of you at all times.

Keep in mind, a Linux desktop environment can be accessed via either a VNC Console or a third-party remote desktop protocol client such as Microsoft Remote Desktop once it is properly installed.
