How important is a DE to you? (lemmy.world)

After 2y on Linux I can say with full confidence that switching from GNOME to KDE (for me) is a bigger barrier than switching from Windows to Linux ever was.

I’ve tried a lot to like KDE but I just can’t. I usually see people discussing distros but I feel like picking the right DE makes much bigger impact. I’m yet to try Hyprland though.

Considering the fact that I’m itching to get Steam Frame and VR on GNOME will likely be broken indefinitely, idk what to do.

Gnome is where the heart is for me! It's just so customizable, the extension framework is such a cool concept. And yes, I know, KDE has a lot of bells and whistles, and I think think that's why I dislike it. It's cluttered, Gnome is simple. I like the polish and the smoothness, KDE is nice for people who want more but I'm happy with less. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!
