  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I like KDE cause it has a cute dragon. GNOME is a stinky foot.

    Why not both? Seriously, why shouldn’t I install both DEs so I can figure out what I like best or suit my mood?

    Can’t we actually have it all in this scenario?

    [–] kuberoot@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    I do have both installed, Plasma seems better for gaming with performance and experimental features, while GNOME is very stable for work and, ironically, customizes better for my preferences.

    EDIT: I use Arch BTW

    I used to be a GNOME fanboy, but then GNOME 3 came and I can't stand it. Now I'm a KDE fanboy

    [–] vox@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

    i actually kinda like gnome since gnome 40 release.
    it still sucks to use on small displays like laptops tho due to all the padding everywhere
    also gnome's touchpad gestures and multi-desktop management is superior to that of kde.

    Eh, my main reason for going KDE is every time I try Gnome, it feels like "what do I do now" and "where is the program I opened"

    I know that would get better with time spent using it, but then again, KDE feels like I can make it do what I want a lot easier

    And none of the other DEs look as nice and polished, which, I know, that's not the important part ... But dammit, I'm gonna be spending a lot of time staring at it, I'd like it to look good to me at least

    I've run MATE for nearly a decade and am now running XFCE, preparing to jump into a window manager as soon as I get a machine for my exclusive use.

    What does that make me?

    [–] bpcomp@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

    You've got to XFCE it MATE. It makes you a nerd like the rest of us.

    Eliminate your rat-based mousing desires and join us in celebrating StumpWM, back behind the dumpsters, where they keep the extra parentheses.

    I installed a Fedora KDE Plasma spin and it enabled features on my laptop i didn't know existed. It was nice. Windows 11 sucks. I'm happy to get rid of it.
