Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html

2. Be civil

Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

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.

These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.

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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.

4. No recent reposts

Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

The Cinnamon desktop is pretty awesome, though, but you can just install it on another Debian district.

I also used it, and liked it, then Plasma, made it look like Windows 12 (looked like a combination of Windows and macOS), but I'm now on GNOME again. I might use something else in the future tough.

What are your problems exactly? For me, it was that GNOME was more stable and had some trackoad gestures. And on Plasma, something just felt small. I tried changing the text size, but it was still harder to read.

Weird I always have the opposite feeling with KDE: everything is big. Mostly the icons and bar at the bottom. However tbf it might be because I am used to Xfce4 and only recently went back to KDE

Gnome stability, hands down.

My ideal OS: all of KDE's features locked behind 'advanced' menus.

Acts in every other way (including stability) like Gnome.

I really want to like KDE. It just feels so much like the unnecessary is put to the front, rather than provided as a side feature.

I like Trinity because it looks like old Windows environment :)

Good you did a thorough test, what distro did you end up choosing?
