Although I've been using Linux on and off over the past few years, nowadays I use MX Linux, XFCE version.DE = Desktop Environment, such as gnome, KDE, and XFCE etc. They differ from using just a window manager such as openbox, i3, awesome, dwm, herbstluftwm etc. DE's are fully featured with lots of buttons to push to achieve lots of different functions whereas window managers are more one dimensional and largely just stick to managing the movements, sizes etc. of windows on the screen. That's roughly it I'd say.
Openbox is a Window Manager (WM), NOT a Desktop Environment (DE)!Out of the DEs you've quoted, I recognize Openbox, but have never used it.
