I use KDE. Some use GNOME. Most other options are probably to be left out as X11 is unsafe.
Cosmic is not nearly finished, but will probably be a bit safer, as its in rust, even though not tested.
Then there are window managers like Sway, Hyprland, waymonad, wayfire, etc.
RaspberryPi also has their own Wayland Desktop.
Is every Wayland Desktop / WM equally safe, what are other variables here like language, features, control over permissions, etc?
Got it, some preconfigurations, which could be usefull or not. Like for some software to work properly I also layered ffmpeg, which required override remove lbav packages.
For firefox AND video thumbnails and preview to work you can just add
libavcodec-freeworld
. But full ffmpeg is so much better.
