I do not like to sit on the first row because I feel the seats are slightly uncomfortable due to the fixed armrests.
We each make our judgements . I place the ‘pecking order’ for Thai domestic carriers as follows:

TG (THAI International) Full service, but not operating at present
PG (Bangkok Airways) Boutique, a lounge for all pax
WE (THAI Smile) LCC+ IMHO. THAI subsidiary, about to be absorbed back into TG. Some benefits for THAI and LG group status holder pax)
DD (Nok Air). LCC, great network. Supported by THAI.
FD (Thai AirAsia). LCC, great network.
SL (Thai Lion Air). LCC. Never flown
VZ (Thai VietJet). LCC. Never flown
