Interesting.

Would you like to share for which purpose you use which one and why?

Also which applications do you use?

Never heard about Wayfire so far.

Best,

Sure!
Plasma is my daily desktop, with my tools for scripting and webmail, RSS
reader, Social Media, Gemini protocol rendering, KDE Connect integration,
etc. It is highly customized with lots of custom keybindings, making it
unsuitable for coding or testing code.
Openbox or Fluxbox is where I code and test most things. Uncomplicated,
it does not interfere or get in my way or in the way of my IDEs or testing
tools.
Wayfire, rather like Openbox for Wayland. Fast, simple, complete, and
fast. (I know, I said that twice. It gets me coming and going!) I use it
for testing the same code for compatibility with wayland (or often properly
with XWayland).
