That may not be reliable. I only ever use KDE, but my
/etc/sysconfig/desktop file says:
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/desktop
DESKTOP=GNOME
OTOH, I have:
$ systemctl status sddm
● sddm.service - Simple Desktop Display Manager
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service; enabled;
vendor preset: enabled)
Active: active (running) since Fri 2019-09-20 10:53:31 BST; 3 days

Which is why the accurate way to determine the DM is....
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ ll /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 36 Nov 5 2017 /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service ->
/usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service
And note where the symbolic link points
