Gnome and KDE are equally good.
Imo they are both solid technologically, but KDE delivers much more with it's defaults. Obviously you can theme both to hell and back and make them look however you want and get whatever functionality you want, but default KDE is so much more usable than default gnome it's not even a competition.
That would be way more accurate with KDE on the left and XFCE on the right. GNOME is completely different (and also, hands down, very ugly) out of the box.
Have you ever used either?
To say they're reversed is pushing it as I'm not sure gnome is at the level of the low poly lara yet
I used Gnome for years and can honestly say that if you put a lot of effort into it, mess with configs, and install a few extras, it rises to a new level of kind of shitty but usable.
Fuck, KDE was pretty a decade ago, and Gnome is still just plugging away, being the bare minimum.
I honestly don’t really see it, I think vanilla GNOME looks amazing, while KDE Plasma just screams Windows 7 to me.
Having said it that, both are great DE’s with vastly different approaches. So these can definitely just co exist, while we can both agree that both DE’s are great for different people and workflows.
One thing I'll give gnome, it's really good for 2-in-1s. The desktop metaphor works really well for tablet and trackpad use out of the box.
I believe in KDE supremacy.
I like the template but the KDE GUI is simply beautiful, and looks very modern, so this is not really a real thing
i think is reversed... but it's ok
Everyone here is super salty, meanwhile I just thought this was suggesting that GNOME is like a rounder KDE
Used both. Dislike both. Now on i3.
Same, but I ended on Hyprland
Used i3 for years, tried bspwm. Liked the concept - absolutely loathed the community. Ended on herbstluftwm.
If Wayland ever fixes hdpi scaling, I'll be looking for something that works the same way: configuration is entirely through scripting, not config files. I don't think I'll ever give that up, now that I've discovered it.
It looks like hyprland uses config files, right?
Arch btw?
EndeavourOS, formerly pure Arch btw.
Pure terminal, GUI is for noobs 🤣
The idea that kde looks bad is laughable... Kde user here lol.
KDE feels like Windows to me. GNOME is something entirely different, it's UI is very touch friendly, only downside is it has old code all over the place.
Out of the box, maybe, but kde is super customizable to be how you want it. I think gnome can do that too, but it feels much more opinionated and all I ready about is install scripts that break. (I haven’t tried gnome in years though)
Yep, I love how quickly I can turn a new install into a fugly mess with no way back to sanity
For me GNOME feels like MacOS
You can customise KDE plasma a lot. I think you can do that with gnome as well but it's harder as far as I know.
XFCE just chillin in the background
Wat? Not sure what is the creator smoking buthe/she should seek help.
Ill choose those triangle titties anytime
XFCE is better than both.
Good joke
XCFE feels like it came from that XP/Vista period where UIs were moving away from looking like they were drawn in a terminal but hadn't quite reached "fluidity" or whatever other bs marketers call modern UIs... I could understand a tiling dm being called better than both but given XCFE is only better at being lightweight, that's a self-placed restriction because it's very reasonable to say most people can run either KDE or Gnome with virtually undetectable overhead
Xfce is highly customizable (definitely more than gnome) and can look modern with a little theming. Its also much easier to replace components of the de (like the xfce wm or app launcher for example)
You get a like for the meme from me, but I can't see how this is remotely true... KDE user here... KDE user for a reason.............
Gnome has felt a lot like the Fisher Price DE lately
That would work a lot better with XFCE, Mate or LXQT! (Not that I dislike any of those but unlike KDE they actually look old af)
Ooh now do emacs/vim!
Every one here arguing about kde and gnome - Im just vibin, waiting for Cosmic to hit v1.
I feel like this is used either by someone who hasn't used KDE in a decade or has been using Linux (Ubuntu) for less than a year.
The worst thing you can say about KDE is that the default configuration is pretty basic. However, that's arguably a good thing because that format is straight up better for productivity.
KDE has also embraced user choice. Not only do they design the desktop and applications to be much more configurable than GNOME. A power user can customize KDE in a way that seems to personally offend GNOME developers. In addition, KDE 5 designed their libraries in a way that other DEs can leverage them while still doing their own thing. I haven't kept up, but at one point that was a huge boon to LxQT development.
Above all else, the KDE team seems a lot more reasonable than the GNOME team. Over the past decade, KDE has worked hard to rebuild trust after their disastrous 4.0 rollout. Meanwhile in that same period four different groups of developers have decided to go their own way because they felt the GNOME team was impossible to work with.
Lol. You did this on purpose didnt you?
Gnome reminds me of MacOS(derogatory). I mean at least Gnome lets me change shit if I fidget and fennagle enough, but it is still far too locked down for me. Extensions are a half-measure that also doesn't do enough.
KDE is good but it's a bit pudgy, I'm a XFCE user.
Used both and really love both.
LMDE is the superior one.
LMDE is an OS, noch a desktop environment
