I’ve been using Fedora for a couple of months now, and have been loving it. Very soon after I jumped into this community (among other Linux communities) and started laughing at all the people saying “KDE rules, GNOME drools,” and “GNOME is better, KDE is for babies.” But then I thought, “Why not give KDE a try? The worst that happens is I go back to using GNOME.”

Now I get it. The level of customization is incredible, it’s way faster than GNOME, and looks beautiful too. At this point, I’m not going back.

I’ll happily contribute to the playground fight over desktop environments. KDE rules, GNOME drools.

  • My first Desktop was KDE, but switched to Gnome about 15 years ago. So, I am very comfort with the Gnome’ish workflow. But some months ago I bought a Steam Deck and use the Desktop (KDE) a lot. But I don’t feel that comfort as with Gnome. I miss the flexible workspaces and the look of the designs is, well, not that modern (some even make glitch effects). If you’re comfort with it, it’s okay, but personally I don’t understand and feel the benefits of using it.
