I favor Glide when I want a shine and Permacore when I want something more matte. I find both are economical and if I have a color I use alot, I buy 2 cones, one for the machine and one for bobbins. I hate winding too many and then having them full of a color I might not use again for 6 months. Permacore has a bit more lint, but any thread that is not a mono filament will have fuzz.
