XFCE taking the picture

The biggest thing for me with these two which makes KDE the better DE is that with Gnome I have to change the way I work, with KDE I change it to the way I work. That's what it all boils down to for me.
-
As far as I know there is no intended method for changing the default terminal in Gnome.
100% unacceptable.
-
You just described my exact situation. I went back to plasma after using GNOME for 3 weeks.
-
The way you work might not be the best way to work. That's kind of the realization I had to have to use GNOME - now using anything else feels like a chore.
-
Same, I won't leave Gnome again!
-
-
Thats not Gnome. You need to remove the glasses. Hair is not an option. Two eyes, mouth, nose. That's all you get. And you are not allowed to focus on all three, only one at a time can be shown.
-
It's more like:
OS after ricing
OS before ricing
-
lmao my KDE is the most rainbow shit evee with candy icons and purple color
-
-
Haha, I just tried kde plasma yesterday and went back to dark gloomy serious gnome.
-
Yeah I've been using Gnome for a few years and decided to try xfce and kde again, kde kept crashing then reloading and wouldnt save where I put my widgets. And xfce was good but I couldn't get Awesome WM to work and I missed wayland. So back to Gnome I guess
-
That's weird, for me KDE is rock solid, even with Wayland. GNOME was a resource hog, crashed a couple of times (Debian 12).
-
-
-
Other way around
-
Agreed. Because I prefer KDE and the goth chick.
-
I don't think you have to be goth to like goth chicks
-
-
Gnome is the fancy rainbow girl but with useful eyes or mouth. While KDE is the other girl, elegant and customizable and could be a more functional rainbow girl if she so chooses.
(This came out really weirdly but maybe y'all got it anyways)
Edit: I actually meant useless but eh.
-
Yes. As a Gnome user is agree.
-
Still Gnome for me
-
-
-
Gnome is business casual.
-
OP only ever seen default Garuda KDE I guess.
-
It definitely dose look like Garuda!
-
-
I migrated from Kubuntu after 4 years to Debian 12 last month. Default GNOME DE. Yesterday I uninstalled that shit and installed Plasma. GNOME is pretty and shit, but just wasn't for me.
-
Every time I try GNOME I get very confused about what they're training to achieve. I don't like a lot of basic default settings, a story in itself. But the worst part is that they can only be changed via advanced tooling not installed by default (extensions, GNOME tweak). How is that user friendly?
-
I used to use GNOME and modded it heavily to my liking. Because the default gnome feels like it's missing stuff. Now it kinda makes sense why I'm okay with using MacOS and modding it's missing features.
-
-
Definitely Gnome :)
-
Why does Gnome not have tray icons yet! I really don't get it.
I don't want to use extensions.
-
yet? They had them like forever and removed them. IIRC the reasoning was that implementation between applications was wildly inconsistent but the situation is far from optimal either way
-
Yeah, the consensus within the GNOME dev community is that yes, tray icons can be implemented as of right now, but it would lead to very messy systems and most surely lots of technical debt, so the chosen path forward is to wait for a better, unified alternative to arise and then evaluate its implementation in GNOME.

-
Still i like gnome
-
Now I extra prefer gnome
-
-
This made me think of this great early text that mostly had this situation reversed :
-
they will probably be too jacked up on X
This has not aged well
-
-
All these KDE vs. Gnome discussions. I tried them all in a production environment with smb shares WebDAV, caldav etc. I can use them all the way it is usable. But best working from the ground, without to much hassle, is simply gnome.
If someone is new to Linux I would always lead them to gnome.
-
Cinnamon is kind of related to Gnome but especially for people comming from Windows Mint is my top recommendation, I prefer Gnome myself tho!
-
-
Am I weird because I like MATE?
-
I’ve never used it.
What makes you like it?
-
It's like old school Gnome. I can theme it like my work Mac, but have the flexibility of running Ubuntu on my desktop and laptop.
-
-
MATE is modeled after when Gnome was good, so I'd say that's not weird at all.
-
Yeah, I just wish it had a better task switcher like expose / mission control for OSX.
-
-
-
<3 Cinnamon too
-
Cinnamon is like classic Gnome but modernized and better. Out of the box, it's more usable than Gnome 3 even with a lot of extensions.
-
-
AwesomeWM! (On top of xfce 😁)
-
Lxde gtk3 is still best.
-
LXDE and LXQt is perfect
looks like hot garbage until you spend 300 hours theming it but BOIYE IT FAST AS FUCK-
Sounds like the year I used Openbox, I guess it's kind of based on that so not too surprising but definitely cool!
-
-
Truth.
-
-
VIM is my DE of choice.
Emacs vs VIM: https://www.vibe.com/lifestyle/fashion/lizzo-questions-return-victorias-secret-fashion-show-1234740198/
-
So... Emacs is about inclusivity because VIM users used to fat-shame it?
Did you link the wrong article?
-
you almost got it, no past tense about shaming EMACS for being fat + bloated :)

No love for labwc?
Supports x11+wayland or just wayland and can even run natively on Vulkan, is extremely quick to start and to operate
-
Well as the project README says
Labwc is a wlroots-based window-stacking compositor for wayland, inspired by openbox.
So it's not quite a DE.But it looks interesting. While I myself don't use Wayland, I'm all for new WM/Wayland compositors. If it's as nice as Openbox, then I hope it does well.
-
-
This one is so accurate its actually a DE as attractive as this chick
-
come back to me when you can tile windows natively
-
Your downvoters will never understand. If the option were there, people would realize that is the way.
-
Agreed. I don't care about window tiling, but when done right is fucking awesome.
