Arché

Every Linux distro. Just get a DE and a theme you like.

i really like Manjaro, but it's based on Arch. i would recommend against it as a first distro. only use it if you have at least a bit of experience with the terminal.

Elementary OS, hands down. At least, if you like minimalist design, which I do. 

 

EDIT: My browser glitched, sorry for the double post.

Any distro can be beautiful if you install the right desktop and tweak it right with themes. 

 

The only thing preventing me from making my desktop absolutely glorious is the shitty 1080p tn panel on my cheap laptop.

Not a big fan of gnome desktops.

yeah, they have their issues. but the alternatives are not that great either. KDE has theming inconsistency, and the others are too lightweight for me generally...

 

which desktop do you prefer then..?

i agree. but Elementary has it's own issues.. i've had plenty of pantheon glitches and stuff like installed applications not showing up in the menu's etc..

Cinnamon. I tried mate too but it looked so outdated like it was from the 1990s and I’ve mess around with unity on Ubuntu and that thing is the polar opposite. So much colors and such heavy themes that it looked just overly bulky.(which can be backed up by its vastly larger size and ram usuage)

 

Kde is is not as pretty as cinnamon when same themes are applied.

KDE has theming inconsistency? I'm not sure what you're talking about.

What settings? KDE has more options for eye candy than most DEs.

the window borders look completely out of place on non-qt applications.

[EPENEX]

Any Linux distro. Just rice it to perfection.

Did you set the GTK2 and 3 themes to Breeze? Some distros do that by default, some don't.

[LIQUIDFOX00200]

What you guys think about deep in Linux??

And one more question- 

What is Docker??

but with for example chrome, they still look out of place for me... i'm talking above the tabs.

Linux is ugly because of the userland, not because of the desktop.

Deepin isn't too bad, but it sure had some odd quirks for me.

I think their is no 'most beautiful' Linux distro. The beauty of Linux lies in it's customizability. How good your Linux looks depends on your creativity and your skills, not on "the available distros". One might install gnome, a nice theme and iconpack, and some extensions and call it a day. It will result in a good looking DE. Others will go with a very minimal WM and dive into config files and never stop configuring and tweaking. They will end up with a very good looking setup, that will always change to match their tastes.

 

This is my (Desktop) setup: 

It's running fedora, with the i3-gaps window manager and polybar as the statusbar.

My laptop looks the same, but has only 1 monitor, runs Arch and has different elements in the statusbar:
