What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.

If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:

“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.

French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.

“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.

“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
