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.

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

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.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

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?

Definitely Gnome :)

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Why does Gnome not have tray icons yet! I really don't get it.

I don't want to use extensions.

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.
